Help Us Bring our Zipline Back!
Update (January, 2017): We've raised over $2000 so far!
Charis Camp & Conference Centre launched our BRING OUR ZIPLINE BACK for GivingTuesday, a global giving movement that has been driven by individuals, charities, businesses and communities across Canada and in countries around the world. Just as Black Friday kicks off the holiday shopping season, GivingTuesday is the opening day of the giving season.
So far more than 5,400 Canadian charities, businesses and community groups have used GivingTuesday to rally generosity and help make the world a better place in countless ways. Around the globe people are participating in GivingTuesday activities in 71 countries including Australia, Brazil, Kenya, Slovenia, Tanzania, the UK and more.
Lives constantly change for the better at Charis Camp and Conference Centre! Giving Tuesday is an incredible opportunity for Charis Camp to raise awareness around our plans to improve our already awesome facilities so we can continue serving guests and campers at the most affordable rates possible. We want Summer Camp and Retreats to be accessible to all. A number of years ago, our zipline was decommissioned due to changing standards required for insurance. We need to completely re-engineer and rebuild it to current standards. Additionally, last fall, Charis Camp lost part of the ropes course in a wind storm, and we'd like to repair those stations. Our ropes course and zipline are key elements to team building exercises, and faith building experiences.
About Charis Camp & Conference Centre
Charis Camp exists to provide facilities and programs to serve the local church and make Jesus Christ known to all by demonstrating Christian integrity and values. Charis Camp & Conference Centre is at its core a Christian community. This means that while we seek to provide the best possible experience to everyone, regardless of their beliefs, we do so because we are driven by a love for Christ and what he has done in our lives. This camp exists to share that love with others.
