A NOTE TO OUR DONORS:

We have changed our online giving platform for several reasons. Primarily, by using PayPal Giving Fund as a Non Profit ministry, we are now able to eliminate ALL processing fees that the previous platform was charging! This means that 100% of your donation goes directly towards sponsoring a child to come to camp! When you click the above PayPal Donate link, you will be taken to our 501(c)3 page where you can make a secure donation. Thank you so much for your support of this ministry!

VALLEY HAVEN SUMMER CAMP (SPONSOR A CHILD FOR JUST $250):

  • Valley Haven Summer Camps are 100% free, adventure based, Gospel Summer Camps for children who are under-served. 
  • Our non profit works with local community partners, including local law enforcement and other agencies, to identify children who need investment opportunities and who would otherwise not be able to afford them. 
  • In 2022, VH will sponsor 120 youth from our area to attend Valley Haven Summer Camp!
  • $250 is the cost to sponsor a child for a whole week of Gospel centered summer camp. 
  • ​Click HERE to learn more about Valley Haven Summer Camps and how you can change a child's life in 2022.
A $250 donation sends a child to camp for a whole week. That's a whole week of relational investment, adventure, laughter, and most importantly... Jesus. $250 can change the course of a child's whole life. 

 GENERAL FUND DONATIONS:

  • Valley Haven is a non profit camp and retreat ministry consisting of 175 acres, 19 structures and buildings, multiple trails, a large gymnasium, game fields, a 200 gallon spring fed pool and full waterfront activities. 
  • We are committed to keeping the retreat property in excellent shape so that our campers and guests can rest, play and grow in their relationship with Jesus. 
  • Donations of ANY amount to our general fund help us maintain this beautiful non profit ministry through construction, maintenance, grounds care, and upkeep of necessary machinery. ​
In 2021, in property maintenance alone, we capped a bridge to prevent flood damage, repaired an eroding embankment in the creek with large equipment, replaced an AC unit in the Lodge, replaced the convection oven in the kitchen, replaced several roofs at the camp due to storm damage, and started construction to add bathrooms to our camp gym at the request of the county. Your investment helps us continue to provide a safe, beautiful place of Gospel ministry here in Catawba County...
