Giving

North Central Camp Cherith is a non-profit organization. It is interdenominational and receives no funding from other organizations. Camper fees are kept low to reach young people from a wide variety of backgrounds. This creates a need to raise financial support for operations as well as expansion and improvement of programs.

If you would like to speak with someone about donating gifts of stocks, bequests, endowments, memorials or other planned gifts, contact giving@camp-cherith.com.

Phone-a-thon is held each November before Thanksgiving. All campers and past donors receive a letter asking for financial support for general operations of the camp. Phone calls are made by volunteers to answer any questions, receive feedback about camp, and encourage donations.

Banquet is held in April to raise funds and volunteers for specific needs such as building improvements or purchase of camp vehicles. The intent is to recruit new families to Camp Cherith while also providing a time of fellowship, celebration, and giving for those familiar with Camp.
