Did you know…?
We don’t turn boys away from camp based on finances. Instead, we trust that God will provide for each boy’s stay.

Sponsorship

At Crane Lake Discovery Camp, we don’t turn anyone away based on their finances. Caregivers pay what they can afford, and then we cover the rest of their fees from the Josh Weber Camper Support Fund.

Would you consider donating to sponsor a boy at Crane Lake Discovery Camp? While we can’t designate funds for one specific boy, your donation will help a family that is struggling.

  • Sponsor a boy for 1 day: $150

  • Sponsor a boy for 1 week: $1,000

  • Sponsor a boy for 1 month: $4,000

To donate to this fund, specify when you donate that it is for the Josh Weber Camper Support Fund.

Fiscal responsibility

We value the gifts you share with us, and promise to treat your gifts with respect and integrity.

We are frugal. We are careful when we spend money, getting multiple quotes for building projects and looking for ways to cut costs. Because of the generous donations of time, skilled labour, and building materials, most of our building projects have cost only half of the budgeted amount. We are amazed at the generosity of people and God’s provision.

We value people. We do not turn boys away from camp based on finances. We ask caregivers to pay what they can afford, and trust God to provide the rest through his people.
