About CAMP ARANZAZU FOUNDATION

Camp Aranzazu Foundation is a Houston-based 501(c)(3) private foundation (EIN 37-1956865) that serves as the primary philanthropic backer for Camp Aranzazu, Inc., the operating, barrier-free camp on Copano Bay in Rockport, Texas. The Foundation’s purpose is to preserve and strengthen the camp’s 100-acre accessible facility, sustain the Camp Aranzazu Resiliency Fund (endowment), and underwrite camp fees, scholarships, and program expenses so partner organizations can bring campers with disabilities and medical needs to camp. In recent years the Foundation has reported multi-hundred-thousand to multi-million dollar financial activity and net assets in the multi‑million‑dollar range (fiscal filings in 2021–2024 show substantial contributions and investment income), reflecting active grantmaking and endowment stewardship to support year‑round camp operations and scholarship programs.
