Providing care to more than 100 youth every day at no cost to families
Our Community Centers Program provides a safe and nurturing environment for youth from low-income neighborhoods at no cost to families. Research shows that quality after-school programs improve school attendance by nurturing a sense of belonging, creating a connection to caring adults, and providing academic enrichment, all of which make youth more likely to go to school and succeed.
If you are interested in registering for one of our community center locations during summer, please reach out to our main office at campfire@campfireak.org for more information. We do not offer drop-in care, so please register in advance.

The Camp Fire Alaska main office operates on the ancestral land of the Dena’ina people. Camp Fire Alaska runs programing on the lands of the Athabascan, Yup’ik, Chup’ik, Sougpiaq, and Inupiaq peoples. We value and thank them for their current and historic commitment to and protection of this land. We pledge to assist, in partnership, in the environmental stewardship of these lands. We strive to learn more about the history of the Native peoples of Alaska and the historic trauma they have suffered. We commit to being an active ally through activities, actions, and organizational decisions and practices. We understand that this is a dynamic process through which our Land Acknowledgement practices, and statement will evolve as we receive feedback from tribal partners and acquire a deeper understanding of and from the Native peoples of Alaska..
