FTC Santa Ana

Thank you all!!!!

You are all amazing, beautiful people!

This year we had 23 first time volunteers!

And we also celebrated 5, 10, 15, and 25 years!

Camp truly cannot happen without all of you. We hope you continue to debrief, remember the highs, remember the faces, and most importantly get some rest.

You gave all you had, for the children!

Campers are here!!!!!

Today, campers arrived at camp. Some anxiety, some nervousness, some excitement, and so many sweet little faces!

Please pray that they feel all the love. That they have a week of moments that matter. And that they can just have a week of joy.

If you feel inclined, pick a few names and pray each day we are here.

Camp is here!!!!!

Today, all our volunteers are heading up the mountain. They are going to setup the camp, begin setting up activities, setting up the rooms, and praying over the camp.

They are taking a week out of their year to provide memorable moments for the children. Please pray for health, safety, endurance, and overflowing love.

To all the volunteers, we love and appreciate you all!

“Just keep swimming!”
🏊🏊‍♀️🏊🏽‍♂️

Swimming is one of our biggest activities. The kids get to swim everyday!!! And we have one full water day. Lots of positive memories are made in the pool including cheering each other on during the swim test 🤿

There are some kids who do not come ready for the pool due to one reason or another. That’s where we need your help!!! These are our biggest needs:

🩴 🩴: Flip flops/ water shoes: Sizes adult Med/ Lg/ XL

🩱🩳: Sizes kids Lg/ XL or Adult Sm

🧦🩲: various assortment of sizes from kids to adults

Two ways to give:
* Donate online to our website and we will purchase items
* DM for address to ship or dropoff purchased items

Thank you in advance for supporting our amazing campers!!

We need 1 day volunteers!

For 90+ adults, they have committed a week of their time to provide positive memories and moments that matter to foster kids.

And while you may not be able to commit to the whole week, we could still use your help!

- Wednesday Birthday Party
This is a day to celebrate all our amazing campers. Some have never had a birthday party, some have a hard time accepting celebrating, and some just love the great snacks. We want to ensure every kid knows that are loved and celebrated just for being them!

You can still make an impact, even if it’s just for a few hours.

- Monday Registration
This sets the tone for the camp. Kids and caregivers come in nervous and excited. Some have been here before and some are new. Seeing friendly faces who are just ready to receive and help them helps alleviate some of that.

This summer we hope to bring 80+ foster kids to camp!

Your tithes will support lodging, food, activities, and memorable moments. Ultimately, you will support a week of knowing how much they are loved by God and that they are part of a royal family!
