Each year over 50% of our campers request some type of aid in order to attend camp. We have to turn many away. We'd like to change that!
Some children come from great homes in great neighborhoods, but due to a health concern or a lost job, camp is not a necessity. Some kids come from inner city neighborhoods with limited means and the chance to unwind away from the stress is immensely valuable. Other families, due to many other circumstances cannot provide for one while without providing for their 4 or 5 siblings. All come to us asking for a break in tuition costs, often not met due to inadequate funding.
We provide a place for children to relax and enjoy wherever they are in life, to appreciate nature, learn about themselves, make friendships, grow in faith, and nurture one another in a save supportive environment. Help support our Financial Assistance program so that all kids can receive the "gift" of camp.
