Why Choose Camp Sonshine?

Do you want more than just a "summer job"? Do you want to be a part of a mission that is changing the world? If your answer is "Yes!", Camp Sonshine is where you need to be this summer. For more than 30 years, we've been investing in the lives of children and families near our nation's capital. With amazing activities like go-karts, archery, swimming, ropes courses, and more, we create a unique environment where kids have ridiculous amounts of fun while learning life skills from caring staff.

Tough, But Worth It

Camp Sonshine is not a vacation. Nor is it just a job. It is a life-changing experience that engages every part of your body, soul, and spirit. Most of our counselors will tell you that spending a summer here is one of the most challenging things they've ever done. But they'll also tell you that every moment was completely worth it.
