The Martis Camp Foundation was recently named 2023 Nonprofit of the Year by the Truckee Chamber of Commerce! This award is a result of the positive impact made by the MCF in our greater community through the generous donations of Martis Camp Members. We extend a huge thank you to our donors for helping our community thrive through MCF community grants and scholarships.
In addition to community grants and scholarships, donations to the MCF help fund important capital projects around the Truckee/North Tahoe community, including the new bridge (pictured above) which crosses the Truckee River on the south side of downtown. The bridge connects to Truckee Springs and a new section of the Truckee River Legacy Trail. Take a walk or bike ride and experience the positive impact the MCF is making in our spectacular mountain community.
Whether you already donate to the MCF or you're new to our mission, we invite you to make a charitable donation to help us continue to enhance the quality of life in the Truckee/North Tahoe community in the areas of Education, Youth Development, Human Services and Recreation.

Fourteen years ago, the Martis Camp Foundation (MCF) started with the hope of sending one high school student to college. Today, we are the largest provider of college scholarships in the Truckee/North Tahoe region. In our first few years, the MCF was able to donate a handful of grants to local nonprofits. Today, we are one of the largest grantors to nonprofits in Truckee and supported more than 50 organizations with over $1.2 million in grants in 2024. In 2018, we expanded to include scholarships to our Ambassadors and their dependents to help our amazing Martis Camp employees achieve their educational dreams. And yet again, we’ve broadened our focus to support communities tragically affected by wildfire. We are very proud of the difference we are making in our local community and we invite you to join us.
We have done this impactful work with about 23% of Martis Camp Members donating in 2024. Please help us increase Martis Camper participation by considering a donation to the MCF. Any donation is greatly appreciated. As you are making your year-end charitable donations, we hope you favorably consider the MCF in your giving plans. We invite you to join us in demonstrating the heart of Martis Campers in helping the Truckee/North Tahoe region thrive.
