Financial Aid
Who Should Apply for Financial Aid?
Financial Aid is intended for families who require monetary assistance to come to LEAD. Our goal is to ensure that any student can attend LEAD at least once a summer.
If you are a teen who wants to attend multiple weeks of camp and looking to offset your costs, financial aid is not necessarily for you. We encourage you to look to our LEAD Discounts page where we list different ways that campers have raised money in order to attend LEAD.
First-Time Scholarship
Any teen who has not attended LEAD before is eligible for the Youth Empowerment Scholarship (YES), a $100 scholarship. This is available to all first-time campers regardless.
For more information, please visit the LEAD Discounts page and select the “Y.E.S. Program” dropdown or reach out to our office (517-321-6233, office@ssionline.org).
Required Payments
We require a minimum payment of $100 per each first-time camper or a minimum payment of $200 for each repeat recipient. Your $50 deposit is included in this amount.
If you are unable to make the minimum payment please contact us at (517) 321-6233 or by emailing office@ssionline.org.
