Nonprofit Value
Report
Camp Jump Start is the ONLY nonprofit summer residential Whole health camp and kids weight loss camp in the nation! A for-profit weight loss camp's bottom line is to make the most money that the market will bear. Some fat camps will see 750 campers in a summer. How do they even know their names? This also may mean that an older child will be placed with younger children just to fill beds.

Accreditation
Report
Are you looking for access to a successful program that has a proven track record for almost 2 decades?. American Camp Accreditation (ACA) is the best evidence parents have of a camp's commitment to a safe and nurturing environment for their children.
American Camp Association accreditation is voluntary, so even though many state and federal laws and regulations address basic sanitation and food service concerns, we at Living Well Foundation wanted to take this a step further by meeting American Camp Association Standards as well.

Youth Camp
Report
This is a place where kids can be kids. We disconnect them from the electronics and give them a chance to run, jump and play like kids were meant to play. We have found that many parents need a safe place to send their children during the summer while they work. They recognize the benefits of the immersion into a healthy lifestyle and they know and trust the people caring for their children.
