Project 23: Help Us Say In Outreach, Summer Camp, Support Posted June 21, 2018

Project 23: Help Us Say "YES!" to Every Camper

Each summer we provide over $10,000 in full or partial scholarships to help kids come to camp. This year we have awarded more than ever before and in just the second week of our nine-week camp season, we had granted enough scholarships to exhaust our allotted funds. We continue to receive scholarship applications daily and we’d like to say “Yes!” to every child that wants to come to camp. Can you help us?

This is why we are initiating Project 23: An effort to raise $5,000 in campership funds by June 23rd. We are hoping to raise $2,300 socially today through June 23. 

Why 23? This spring we received a letter from Rev. Bob Hyatt along with a $23 donation. This donation was in honor of the women of First Presbyterian Church in Hope, Arkansas. In June of 1947, these women provided Bob with a $23 scholarship so he could attend camp at Ferncliff. That camp was a profound experience for Bob; it was at this camp that he committed his life to Christian service. Bob wrote in his letter that the $23 gift of camp and the experience he had at Ferncliff were the catalysts for his 65 years of service as a Presbyterian minister. The generosity provided by that small group of women from Hope helped create a life-changing experience for Bob. And who knows how many lives Bob has touched through his many years of ministry? It is in his honor and the honor of that small group of women from Hope that we are initiating Project 23.

Why $5,000? This amount equates to what it would take to grant 23 camp scholarships covering half the cost of camp. We often award partial scholarships so this amount would most likely enable us to provide the camp experience for 40 or 50 more kids this summer that likely wouldn’t be able to attend camp otherwise.
