Camp changes lives
Salvation Army summer camp makes a lasting impression on young lives. Kids eat healthy meals, build self-confidence, and learn God loves them – maybe realizing this for the first time. Support from friends like you makes this restorative experience possible for children in need. We asked campers to tell us what they learned at camp, and we asked donors like you why they support camp. Read their replies below:
