At Salvation Army camps, disadvantaged kids (in particular) have three square meals a day, have the opportunity to further develop social skills, learn creation care, feel valued, and encounter God's love. You will never regret saying "yes" to camp this summer. Apply for a Salvation Army camp and be part of something bigger than yourself: making lives better in Jesus' name.
