This claim has been proven to be false. A lot of the encampments are funded through locals. George Soros has contributed to several campaigns but the pro-palestine encampments are one.

Proven false where? You need to provide more information on who debunked the claim and provide a citation and URL. Thanks!

I found an article by the Washington Post https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/04/26/dishonest-ironic-push-blame-campus-protests-george-soros/ they wrote about the false claims. There was also a New York Post article that came to a different conclusion here https://nypost.com/2024/04/26/us-news/george-soros-maoist-fund-columbias-anti-israel-tent-city/ saying how he has paid some people to continue pushing to radical stances on the subject. I hope this helps you come to more a conclusion on the claim.
