DONATE NOW

Now more than ever, young people need camp. They need to explore nature and stretch their boundaries. They need a loving community where they feel safe to be the people God created them to be. You can help by making a donation to Cross Roads. Fees cover less than half the actual cost of hosting each camper. We also offer generous camperships to help families who can’t afford even our modest fees. Cross Roads is there for youth because of the support of generous donors like you.

Become a Partner

As a church, become a Partner by including Cross Roads in your annual plan.
Partners are critical to Cross Roads’ ability to carry out its mission. Partner gifts enable our ministry to keep fees low, provide scholarships, and launch new initiatives. Cross Roads needs to generate at least $50,000 annually from Partner commitments. Fees alone do not cover the cost of camp, so, we offer camperships to help families who can’t afford the modest camp fee. Partner gifts guarantee any child can come to camp. As a Partner, your organization directly enables the faith formation of young people and raises up future leaders for our church.
