Porter Foundation

Until 1973, Camp Kabeyun was entirely owned and operated by the camp's founder and director, John Porter. Inspired by a strong desire to assure the continuation of camp for as long as possible, John and his wife, Anna, established a foundation which would own and operate Camp Kabeyun.

The John and Anna Newton Porter Foundation is a non-profit foundation qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The foundation is incorporated in the State of New Hampshire.

The purpose of The Porter Foundation is to operate a summer camp for boys and/or girls and related programs to promote citizenship, character and leadership. An all-vounteer board of trustees, comprised of former Kabeyun campers, counselors and parents of Kabeyun campers governs The Porter Foundation.

Parents Love It!

“Nicholas thrives in a place like Kabeyun. This is what I expected, and I could not be more delighted than I am with how things turned out.

Kabeyun has had such an effect on Bennett - more mature, more patient, attentive to others... Please thank all your staff for us. Everyone who worked at Kabeyun should know that their efforts were worth it! Bennett had the most wonderful summer of his life, captured best, I think, in his last letter to us from camp, in which he said: "I AM SOOOOOO COMING BACK NEXT YEAR!!!"”
