Invest in Changing Lives
We believe experiential learning gives all children the opportunity to try, fail, try again, and ultimately succeed within a community of complete support and encouragement. Overcoming challenges, real or imagined, requires sustained effort and creates a sense of real and enduring accomplishment. We strongly believe that every child should have this opportunity.
For this reason, Camp Arrowhead scholarships children (served by our partner organizations) who under ordinary circumstances cannot afford a camp experience. Starting in 2009, our Children of Promise campers, who come from our local community as well as inner-city neighborhoods around the southeast, will participate in regular sessions throughout the summer.
We launched this program in 2005 with a group from Desire Street Ministries in New Orleans and expanded in 2006 to include young people from the Henderson County Young Leaders Program and the local Boys & Girls Club. Both groups joined us again during 2007 and 2008, along with new urban ministry groups from Montgomery, AL and Chattanooga, TN.
During the 2008 camp season, we provided scholarships for more than 120 Children of Promise campers and invite you to make an investment in this life-changing experience. A gift of $850 will make a one-week session affordable for one camper, and all gifts are tax-deductible as allowed by law. Camp Arrowhead is a 501c3, non-profit organization, and our federal tax id is 83-0411277.
