The Campership Fund is a vital organization providing essential financial assistance to young Christian Scientists in the Southeast (GA, TN, AL, NC, SC, and FL) and the Midwest (IL and MO). Each year the Fund assists young people to attend one of the six Christian Science summer camps around the country. If not for the Campership Fund, they would otherwise be unable to attend.
The Campership Fund has been in existence for 20 years. In that time it has accepted and funded over 460 applications from Christian Science families. The Campership Fund approved 69 applications last year and funded over $56,000 in grants.
Because we recognize that each camp is special and that each camper/family situation is unique, we support the individual camper rather than any particular camp. Parents/campers apply for assistance, explaining their family’s need. Our Board meets to prayerfully consider each application so that we can fulfill our mission: that financial need not be an obstacle for a family with a child who wants to attend a Christian Science camp.
The Campership Fund exists because individuals like you make the decision to support young Christian Scientists and to ensure that they have this incredible experience. Without you and your decision to contribute, our ability to meet the need will be compromised. Won’t you consider a gift to the Campership Fund today?
We always appreciate your ongoing loving support.
Thank you so much for letting me go to camp for the first time ever. It was so much fun. I learned so much about God that I never knew before. My counselors taught me so many ways I can appreciate God and so many ways to thank, respect, and love Him more....
