Space for All to Thrive
At Shepherd’s Foundation and Camp Maximum, we recognize the immense challenges faced by disabled individuals and their families on a daily basis. For this reason, we have dedicated ourselves to providing unique camping experiences that cater to the specific needs of disabled youth, adults, and families.
We understand that traditional camping activities can be challenging or even impossible for those with disabilities, and we have adapted our programming to ensure that everyone can participate in a safe and supportive environment.
Our team takes great pride in the extreme activities we offer, which have been carefully modified to accommodate a wide range of disabilities. At the same time, we are always mindful of safety, ensuring that our activities are tailored to each participant’s abilities and needs.
For many disabled individuals, their families, and their caregivers, it can be a struggle to find meaningful support and resources. That’s why we have made it our mission to minister to the parents, spouses, and caregivers who often feel neglected.
Overall, we are passionate about creating a space where everyone can thrive. With our unique programming, dedicated team, and commitment to serving the broader disability community, Shepherd’s Foundation and Camp Maximum are leading the way in inclusive camping experiences.

What People Say
A few words from our supporters.
Elena Evans
Volunteer
"This was my first trip to Ukraine! Wonderful time traveling to Europe, learning new cultures, traditions, serving together with people from other parts of the world and being able to share faith with campers and staff at Camp Maximum. Time I will never forget! The mission ended up better than I could have envisioned! A very memorable, professional, and spiritual journey for me!"
Ashley Lapenta
Programs Coordinator
"I traveled to Ukraine to help develop programing and processes for the new Christian Camp site the local team was just starting to build. I lived and served in Zolotonosha for six months! A rewarding experience I will cherish for the rest of my life. This was not easy, but I would definitely do it again. Love Ukraine and my dear friends in Zolo!"
Kyle Freed
Volunteer
"I iterally could not be happier that I chose to travel on a mission with the Shepherd's Foundation! Through serving and sharing my faith in Ukraine I discovered deeper relationships and a sense of God's presence in my life. This is something you only come to understand when you serve abroad."
