PROVIDE A SEAT AT THE TABLE (or the whole table!) ON #GIVINGTUESDAY!

Help Camp Challenge make sure every camper has a seat at the table during our #GivingTuesday campaign to replace our dining hall tables and chairs!

 

WHAT IS #GIVINGTUESDAY?

#GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration. Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. This year, #GivingTuesday falls on November 29th.

HOW IS CAMP CHALLENGE PARTICIPATING?

For #GivingTuesday, Camp Challenge is raising the rest of the funds necessary to replace our dining hall folding chairs and tables. Our current stock of tables and chairs were second hand to begin with, gratefully received from some of our partner churches. However, to accommodate our growing enrollment, we use even the worst of these bent, rusted, footless chairs and stained, cracked tables simply to make sure everyone has a seat at meal time. We would like to purchase 152 new chairs (about $25 each) and 19 new tables (about $100 each), at a total cost of around $6,000.

HOW CAN I HELP?

Until November 29, you can make a donation of any amount (select #GivingTuesday). As gifts are made, we will fill in the chairs and tables in our “Dining Hall.” Watch our progress on Facebook, Instagram, or gocampchallenge.com. Please help us provide more seats at the table to feed our campers, not only physically, but spiritually, during their time at Camp Challenge!

What an amazing summer camp season we had at Camp Challenge! 514 campers spent time with us here this summer, and 86 of them decided for the first time to follow Christ while here at camp! Many thanks to the staff, volunteers, churches, families, and supporters who make this kind of life change possible for our campers…what a privilege it is to participate in God’s work, yes??
