Here’s a sample of what you’ll find:

Refugee Welcome Backpack – $75

In the coming months, tens of thousands of refugees and asylum seekers will travel hundreds of miles with few material possessions to join family members and communities as they restart and rebuild their lives. Ferncliff is proud to partner with Church World Service as we develop a sustainable, and cost-effective relief kit – the Welcome Backpack.  Your donation of a Welcome Backpack will provide unaccompanied minors and families with the essentials during a vulnerable time of transition: food, water, children’s activities, a blanket, basic hygiene items, and PPE. 

Wonder Bundle – $40

Ferncliff strives to be a place where guests can experience the awe and wonder of God’s amazing creation. The Wonder Bundle is all about enhancing the earth’s natural beauty and creating magical moments for all ages.  These donations will support beautification efforts such as the addition of native plants, windchimes, installation art, tree planting, and other unique ways we can invoke a sense of awe even in the most unexpected places.

Summer Camp Scholarship – $250-450

Few experiences can compete with the wonder and personal development that takes place at summer camp. Unfortunately, some children never get this opportunity – simply financially. Sponsoring a camp scholarship can change the course of a child’s life. You’ll give the gift of camaraderie around the campfire, empowerment hitting a bullseye at archery, and freedom to explore their faith among a loving community.

Nature Preschool Splashy Suit – $25

There’s no such thing as bad weather; only bad clothing!  This motto is often shared when we explain how our preschool classes remain outside year-round. It’s important for our kiddos to have the right gear during rainy weather. So important, in fact, that we provide “splashy suits” to everyone to ensure that they are waterproof from head to toe.  Your gift of a rain suit provides essential gear for preschoolers who are learning how to love and appreciate all that our seasons have to offer.
