Please donate so we can finally afford better water activities for our campers. 🙏

Just kidding! 😂

But we are raising funds for a brand new waterslide through 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐨, and every bit of spare change helps bring more summer magic to camp. 🛝💦

Collect your change and donate the following ways »
💻 Online here: https://givebutter.com/Ox4lX9
📬 By check (include camper’s name + “C4C26” on the memo line)
💵 By cash sent with your camper in their 'Change for Chanco' box

PLUS, the campsite that raises the most money wins an ice cream party during their session. 🍦🎉

First time at ? Here’s what you really need to know...

➡️ Feeling a little nervous at drop off? Totally normal! 😃

➡️ Shy? That's ok! By day 2, you’ll know everyone’s name. 😎

➡️ Feeling homesick? That's totally normal, too. Trust us...you'll be having so much fun that it'll pass quicker than you think. 🎉

➡️ There's no such thing as being "good" at camp. Everyone belongs here. 💙

➡️ Nervous to try something new? (Like zip lining, sailing, and other things you might have never tried?) NORMAL! We'll be right beside you. And you'll surprise yourself with the confidence you didn't know you had. 👏

➡️ So... first time camper? You’re more ready than you think. Because there is no "ready". There's just NOW! 🤩

☀️ Summer at Chanco is waiting for you! » chanco.org

What happens at Chanco on the James?

Our youth grow in faith, come closer to God in a safe and welcoming space, and discover what it means to care for creation, and for one another. Chanco is where our youth begins to understand their role in the world: to lead with respect, compassion, and purpose.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐨.

Chuck asks that you please support our mission tomorrow on our 𝓑𝓲𝓰 𝓓𝓪𝔂 𝓸𝓯 𝓖𝓲𝓿𝓲𝓷𝓰 by making a donation to Chanco. Any amount matter — small or big. Because of Chanco… Because of YOU.
