How to Apply
Each person can update, change and submit an application until the application deadline. We will confirm receipt of your application via email. If you don’t hear from us, please contact us immediately to ensure we have received your essay.
The selection committee receives the applications with redacted names, and each question is marked according to our marking criteria, marks compiled, and candidates selected and notified by the deadline below. We may contact references and conduct interviews to provide a fair process.
Once selected, you will be sent a registration package. See the dates listed below.
There is no cost to attend Camp Courage. Instead, we ask each participant to complete a positive action that supports their community or someone else’s life, as outlined in their essay. To ensure every opportunity is used, Halifax Camp Courage will implement a fully refundable deposit for confirmed participants. If the deposit creates a barrier, support is available — no one will be excluded due to financial circumstances.
Donations are accepted HERE for the continuity of this life-changing initiative.
