Give Today - God Multiplies Tomorrow

Camp Joy has been blessed to see lives changed through God’s work. We want to keep building a future where more kids experience His love and truth.

We want to expand our Camp Joy Savings Fund to help us prepare for future needs, maintenance, and growth opportunities. We would be honored for you to partner with us in this mission. Your monthly gift or one time donation will help us continue to be a place where lives are touched for eternity.

Your Gift Provides:

• Faithful Leaders: We are growing! The summer of 2025 saw a significant increase in staffing due to the increase of camper enrollment. Equipping, training and paying staff, who serve as Christ centered mentors and role models, is a need we will need to meet as Camp Joy continues to see growth.

  • Since 2021, Camp Joy campers increased from 370 to 580. Praise the Lord!! Our needs for more staff are vital to support this growth and meet our mission.

• Safe, Welcoming Facilities: Maintaining/updating cabins, the chapel, staff housing, and dining hall where campers can learn, play, and worship in a safe environment is a high priority. This camp has been a place of blessing for generations. Time and countless memories have been created here. Now we’re eager to restore and strengthen them for the future. Projects we are focusing and saving for the next 3 years include:

  • Air conditioning in the chapel and dining hall

  • Updated windows, doors, and/or siding for the cabins, dining hall, cooks cabin, staff house, and boys bathhouse

  • Interior remodel of the nurse and cooks cabin

  • Staff house upgrades that include: air conditioning upstairs and clean bedrooms for full time staff, speakers and volunteers.

• Water front features: For many campers, the lakefront is the highlight of the week. Adding fun water inflatables and toys makes camp even more memorable and keeps kids coming back year after year. Lake days are where friendships form, fears are overcome, and laughter fills the air. By helping us add new water toys, you’re giving campers a place to experience God’s joy together.

We Are Looking For:

Faithful Monthly Donors

Monthly giving provides the steady foundation our ministry depends on. These gifts help us meet our goals and are the backbone of camp. Monthly donors steady support keeps Camp Joy’s ministry strong all year. It’s not about the size of the gift. It’s about the consistency. Even $10 or $20 a month helps keep Camp Joy thriving all year long.

Impact One Time Gifts

Larger, one-time gifts allow us to dream bigger and build for the future. These gifts help us upgrade and maintain facilities, add new activities, fund special projects that expand our reach and impact.

One-time donors are the spark — your generosity helps launch new projects and expand the vision of camp.

The Eternal Impact:

Your generosity plants seeds of faith that God continues to grow long after camp ends. Many campers leave with a new or renewed relationship with Jesus, carrying that faith into their homes, schools, churches, and future callings.
