Help Build Strong Young Men — One Vote at a Time

At R.M. Pyles Boys Camp, we believe every young man deserves the chance to rise — no handouts, just opportunity earned through grit, effort, and character.

Since 1949, our nonprofit has empowered low-income, underrepresented boys from across California through wilderness leadership experiences rooted in responsibility, resilience, and brotherhood. Campers hike over 50 miles in the Sierra Nevada backcountry, learn to work as a team, and return home transformed — more confident, focused, and ready to lead. Many of our staff and board members were once campers themselves, and they're living proof that with the right tools and mentorship, anything is possible.

By casting your vote for R.M. Pyles Boys Camp through Target Circle, you help us provide this life-changing opportunity to more young men, at no cost to them or their families.
