Stipends

Needs Based Travel Stipends Available

We would like to ensure that the opportunity to work at camp is accessible to individuals in an equitable manner. If the cost of travel will prohibit you from being here we will work with you to provide a travel stipend in order to ensure your arrival at camp.

In addition to the salary, staff members are also eligible to receive a certification stipend based on current, nationally-recognized certifications earned OUTSIDE of previous Sanborn training environments. These stipends will be awarded to hired staff once we:

Receive a copy of the current certification(s)
Determine if the accrediting body is aligned with our certification requirements
Discuss overall need/value of certification and/or experience for camp program

Previous certifications earned at Sanborn Western Camps will not be eligible for the additional stipend.
