Zajac Ranch, located on the shores of Stave Lake, in Mission, BC, serves children with serious and chronic illnesses and disabilities during summer months.

Zajac Ranch is also open year-round to entertain group bookings. In 1999, Mel Zajac had a vision to build a ranch facility to provide camp experiences for children with chronic and life-limiting conditions throughout British Columbia and Canada. This vision was inspired by the incredible impact he has seen through the ‘Hole in the Wall’ camps created by good friend of the Foundation, Paul Newman.

The Pirate Pak Day results are in! Together, we raised over $87,000 for our Zajac Camper Allowance Program, which provides a 50% subsidy on camp registration fees for every family.

Thank you to White Spot Restaurants for being incredible first mates to Zajac Ranch every year for the past 18 years! We are incredibly grateful for your partnership.

And thank you to all of you who celebrated Pirate Pak Day with us! Together, we make sure every kid has the opportunity to make life-long memories at camp.

A huge thanks to Vancouver Whitecaps FC for sending Spike out to visit our campers at Zajac Ranch last week! It was such a joy for the campers to connect and create timeless memories.

We are also thrilled to have our own camper, Lena Foreman taking the field at BC Place on August 22nd as the Whitecaps Kid Captain!

The Kid Captain program celebrates inspiring children in our community and recognizes their resilience, community spirit, and sportsmanship.

The game starts at 6:30PM and we hope to see everyone in the stands to support Lena.

Thanks again to Vancouver Whitecaps FC and Spike for adding a little extra magic to our campers’ days.

Today is World Humanitarian Day and we want to celebrate the works of all humanitarian workers.

Without the countless helping hands of humanitarians across the world, many organizations, including Zajac Ranch, would be unable to fulfill their missions. We are truly humbled by the efforts of humanitarian workers to improve the lives of those around them both near and far.

There are many ways to help the world and many ways to help us here at Zajac Ranch. Learn more about getting involved at zajacranch.com/how-you-can-help/ways-to-give/.

Today is National Nonprofit Day, and we are celebrating everyone who makes our mission possible.

Without a caring community to back us, we would not be able to provide life-changing camp experiences to children, youth and young adults who would otherwise go without. Thanks to the efforts of our partners, donors, and volunteers, we are able to make an impact in more and more lives every year.

🏴‍☠️ This International Youth Day, everyone is invited to be a kid again—for a great cause! 🏴‍☠️

The United Nations defines youth as people between the ages of 15 and 24. But on Pirate Pak Day, children, youth and adults of all ages can order a Pirate Pak and help create life-changing opportunities for young people.

Today, $2 from every Pirate Pak sold at participating White Spot restaurants will be donated to Zajac Ranch for Children, supporting inclusive camp experiences for children and youth with medical conditions and disabilities.
So, gather your crew, order a Pirate Pak and celebrate International Youth Day by helping young people build confidence, discover independence, form lasting friendships and experience the joy of camp.
Because you are never too old for a Pirate Pak—and every young person deserves the opportunity to belong, grow and thrive.

Today, August 9, is International Day of the World’s indigenous People. This year’s theme is Honouring Indigenous Midwives: Safeguarding Life and Well-being. Indigenous midwifery not only preserves life and well-being, but Indigenous knowledge systems that have supported Indigenous Peoples for generations.

This day not only celebrates Indigenous Peoples and their vulture, but it serves as a reminder of the many challenges that Indigenous Peoples face.

At Zajac Ranch, we are grateful for every opportunity we have to work with Indigenous Peoples and to learn from their traditions and cultures.

Zajac Ranch is situated on the unceded, ancestral, and shared territory of the Stó:lō people, who have occupied these lands since time immemorial. The City of Mission is located on Leq’á:mel, Semá:th, Kwantlen, Sq’éwlets, Máthxwi, and Katzie traditional territories.
