Deer Valley Environmental Education Fund

CONNECT OUR STUDENTS WITH NATURE

Through donations to the Deer Valley Environmental Education Fund, the camp provides enriching, hands-on environmental education to Somerset County elementary and middle school students at no cost to their family or their school. With outstanding educational modules which meet Pennsylvania’s state educational standards, special topic outdoor mini-classrooms (PODS) around camp, and a state-of-the-art Environmental Education Center, this program supports and expands the school curriculum, allowing students to directly explore the natural world. Deer Valley seeks to expand this Fund to allow other students to participate in the program. Please consider donating to make this expansion possible. Your donation will allow students from Meyersdale, Rockwood, Salisbury, and Turkeyfoot schools to participate in this invaluable environmental education experience at Deer Valley.

You can also donate to Deer Valley by calling 1-800-962-2386 or by mailing a check to:

EDUCATION FOR ALL

Although Deer Valley is located at the base of Mt. Davis, most of the schools we serve are from Pittsburgh and travel over two hours to experience our outdoor classroom. Deer Valley is dedicated to serving students from neighboring cities but is expanding its commitment to local students and communities.
