I have been hired to work at Youthfront Camp West this summer as a Cabin Leader. I chose this support raising option because I know the value of a week spent at Youthfront. Through my own experiences of being a camper at Youthfront Camp West, I can truly see a maturity in my faith life that still impacts me today. Learning about Jesus in a new and exciting way was all I really needed to kick-start my faith and make it my own. Without Youthfront, I don’t know if I could have ever learned how to see God in the little things, like paddle-boating with my friends or eating a soft pretzel in the snack shop. The little life moments that happen at camp are what we, as staff, work so hard to make happen. These moments can propel a camper who has never experienced Christ before to be overwhelmed by His presence. Youthfront is such a special place in my heart and forever will be because of my experiences as a middle school student. If I can be a small part of that for another camper, that’s what it’s all about.

Each year Youthfront is able to sponsor dozens of campers who otherwise couldn’t attend and experience this incredible time. Many are children in foster care, children of inmates, and those from families who simply can’t afford the full cost of camp. My goal is to send one camper to camp at Youthfront which costs $5oo. You can help me by donating, $10, $20, $50, $100, or any amount in between. Thanks for your support!
