HoneyRock Financial Assistance

We strongly encourage all campers, no matter your family’s financial need, to contribute to their own camp experience through the Matching Scholarship. This gives your camper a deeper sense of ownership for their experience. HoneyRock will match every dollar a camper contributes to the program fee up to $150 (Intro) | $300 (Res/Advance).

For: Intro, Residential (Res), and Advance Campers
Deadline to Apply: encouraged to apply before April 15
Amount: up to $150 match (Intro) | up to $300 match (Res & Advance)

To Receive Funds:

1. Register your camper and pay the $150 deposit

2. Complete “Camper Matching Scholarship” step found in your camper’s registration

3. Complete “Camper Matching Scholarship Questionnaire” as soon as possible, but no later than April 15. 

4. Your Camper Matching Scholarship will be awarded within one month of receiving your completed Camper Matching Questionnaire. Your Camper Matching Scholarship application is NOT complete and cannot be processed without the Questionnaire submission.

5. Help your camper write a thank note to our camper scholarship donors at the conclusion of your camp session. HoneyRock shares these thank you cards with camper scholarship donors. Your camper can write their letter to "Dear HoneyRock Donors" or "Dear HoneyRock". When your camper is ready, you can mail it to the address below.

Additional Information

If your financial situation changes between the time you complete the application and send your camper to HoneyRock, we encourage you to edit your application by logging into your account and updating the information, even if you have already received a scholarship.

If this happens, please also notify Registration by email at honeyrock.register@wheaton.edu of changes you have made.

If you prefer not to cover the cost of your camper’s program at once we can set up a payment plan to pay off your balance over time. Our online system allows for monthly automatic withdrawals from your bank account or credit card. Please contact our Registration Coordinator at honeyrock.register@wheaton.edu to enroll in a payment plan.

Thanks to our partnership with Psalm68Five, we have scholarships available for campers growing up without the active presence of a father in their home or in their life, as noted on our scholarship application. If you are interested in learning more about this specific scholarship, please email honeyrock.register@wheaton.edu.
