Seeds of Hope

Seeds of Hope Seeds of Hope is a faith-based camp for kids in southern Minnesota currently in foster care or the social services system. OUR FIELD. OUR TREASURE.

We are formerly known as Royal Family KIDS Mankato We work primarily with children currently being served by the social services system. We also work with children experiencing trauma from significant loss and economic instability. Some of our campers have been abused or neglected, some have experienced the recent trauma of losing a parent or family member, and some are dealing with mental health

issues within the family unit. Some are currently living in a foster care home, and others are going through the process of reunification with their biological families.


OUR HEART. Regardless of the circumstances that bring them to our attention, these kids and their families are in need of some respite, and we are here to provide it!

We still have a few big volunteer needs for camp this year and we're hoping you can help. Unfortunately, we're on track to have to reduce the number of kids we take this year if we can't find three more male volunteers, taking only 12 boys instead of our usual 16. We want those four boys to be able to experience a life changing week at Seeds of Hope, but we need your help to make that happen.

We need three male volunteers to serve as either a counselor or relief counselor. Our volunteers need to be at least 18 years old, love Jesus, enjoy working with kids, and available June 19-26. They must also pass a criminal background check. If you have been on the fence about volunteering this summer or if you know of someone who would be great that you haven't gotten around to asking yet, here is your sign!

We're also in need of a nurse. Our nurse doesn't need to be an RN, but they do need to have medical/first aid training and be comfortable dispensing medications and responding to minor sickness and injury. A CNA, LPN, RN, PA, or MD would all be fantastic as long as they love Jesus, enjoy working with kids, and are available June 19-26. If you know someone who would be a great fit, please encourage them to apply.

Please join us in praying that the Lord will provide the right people to join our team this summer.

At Seeds of Hope, we believe that childhood is a time to protect, celebrate, and cherish. We believe every child’s future is important and holds unique value. A single week may not seem like enough time, but we can assure you that this is a week of life they never forget. A 2-degree change today can change the world tomorrow.

The cost of taking one child to camp is about $700. We offer this opportunity at no cost to the parents, foster families, county agencies, or adult volunteers. This is what it looks like to take care of the most vulnerable in our community. Will you help us? https://www.seedsofhopekids.org/donate

Every year in our community, Child Protective Services opens more than 400 new cases on behalf of children in this area. That’s more than one child every day. And every day, you see these children - you pass them at the grocery store, or they may be your neighbors. Perhaps you were one of these children yourself.

You can make a difference in the life of a child through your donation to Seeds of Hope. Learn more at www.seedsofhopekids.org
