How your email finds me during CAMP WEEK:

Thank you for all of your prayers over this camp season! I am so grateful to have brought students to YFC camp this year. They had numerous encounters with God this week and are leaving with curiosity and passion! Thank you for all you do to make it possible!

"Camp God" is on the move!😉

During Middle School Camp, I had the incredible opportunity to co-lead our Project Serve group, the team that helps bring every activity, game, and memorable moment together.

Over 20 High-School students and young adults stepped up last week to help lead the next generation, at Middle School Camp! It was an honor to co-lead this group and watch all of them grow in their leadership throughout the week!

Next up.... High School Camp!

Well friends, it looks like my hair is staying brown (until next year) 😉!

While we didn't quite reach our fundraising goal of $2,250, I am incredibly grateful to share that together we raised over $1,600 for our justice-impacted youth! Which means 3 students can attend YFC Camp completely free of charge!!

That is definitely worth celebrating!🥳

What do you think…can we get every kid to camp by THIS WEEKEND?!

We only have $650 left to reach our goal of sending 5 system-impacted youth to YFC Camp!

One of my favorite things a student has ever said to me was:

"Ms. Heaven, every time I try something new, it's with you."

Moments like that remind me how important it is to create opportunities for young people to experience new things and make lasting memories. But the truth is, I only get to provide those experiences because of all of your generosity.

We're so close. Will you help us close the gap and get a few more students to camp?

If we hit our total goal of $2250 by Sunday (6/7), my hair will be dyed PINK! 🩷👀

You guys are INCREDIBLE!!!

Because of your generosity, we've already raised $1,600 of our $2,250 goal to send 5 Juvenile Justice Ministry students to YFC Camp this summer!

Thank you to everyone who has donated, shared, encouraged, and cheered this on!!

We still have $650 to go to reach our goal, and remember... if we hit $2,250, I will officially be dyeing my hair PINK!🩷

My original goal was to have all the scholarships covered by May 31st, but we're too close to stop now and these students are worth the extra push!

If you'd like to help us cross the finish line and send these students to camp, there's still time!!

Our goal is to get 5 justice-involved youth to YFC Camp by TODAY!

We are just under halfway there. We have hit $1,000 of our $2250 goal! Can we fill the gap to get another 3 youth to camp?

Remember… if we hit the goal, my hair goes PINK!🩷

Can you help me reach my goal of $2,250 by May 31st?

Whose that girl with the pink hair...? It could be me! 👀

My goal is to send 5 system-impacted youth to YFC Camp this summer! To make that happen, I need to raise $2,250 for camp scholarships, so I’m upping the ante…!

If we get all 5 scholarships covered by May 31st, my hair goes PINK 💗

Summer camp can be life-changing for students. It’s a place where they build community, grow in their faith, and experience encouragement and belonging. But for many families, the cost of camp is a real barrier.

We never want finances to keep a student from an opportunity that could change their life.

Help us make camp possible for these students this summer ...and hold me accountable to the pink hair! 😅💗

LETS SEND EVERY KID TO CAMP!

In 2024, we brought a group of 4 teen girls to YFC camp who were on probation. They had never experienced a summer camp, and most of them had never even left the city of Grand Rapids! They had a blast waterskiing, meeting new friends, burying me in the sand (🙄), and even facing a few fears!

One of my favorite memories of that summer was watching Penny, wrestle with her faith, and her past, and ultimately accept Jesus as the savior of her life!

Starting right now, you can be a part of helping another youth like Penny, attend YFC Camp this summer!
