Confronting Abuse. Changing Lives.
Someone To Lean On
Lucy was one of the sweetest, most tender-hearted campers we have met. Unfortunately, abuse and neglect had led her into the foster care system. It was Lucy’s first year at camp in 2023, and she was having the time of her life. She loved arts and crafts, swimming, worship, rock climbing, and making new friends. However, in the middle of camp, our team was notified that Lucy would be moving to a new foster home immediately following camp. A new social worker would be picking her up on Friday with no opportunity for closure at her current home. Sadly, this is an unfair reality for many children in foster care. Lucy was devastated. Knowing this, Joyce, one of our camp leaders, was staying close to Lucy’s side. When Lucy begged Joyce to go swimming, it didn’t matter to Joyce that she didn’t have a swimsuit, she jumped in. She wanted to give Lucy someone to lean on and a week of great memories amidst her pain.
HOW TO GIVE
With your gift today, you will help provide kids like Lucy a week of support, encouragement, and the opportunity to set aside their trauma and have fun. For some it can be life changing, for others it’s an opportunity to just be a kid and have fun. Will you help us provide this opportunity? Will you give a gift of $30 or more to send kids like Lucy to camp?
