Over 75% of campers need financial assistance to attend Barefoot. While it is one of the most affordable summer camps around, we also strive to bring in kids from different walks of life, which includes socioeconomic diversity.

You are changing a child’s life by providing scholarship support for nearly 500 youth in need of financial assistance to attend Barefoot Republic Camp each summer through an event called Run Barefoot.

Run Barefoot is a team of runners and walkers uniting to support the mission and vision of Barefoot Republic Camp. Participants are comprised of volunteers, supporters, and friends that represent various churches, schools, corporations and organizations in middle-Tennessee and beyond that compete with and against each other in the Country Music Marathon’s half and full marathon.

Each participant commits to raising $1,000 in scholarship support to send deserving kids to camp.
