Give the Gift of Camp for Generations to Come
What makes Camp Ondessonk special? For many, it is the memories of a first overnight adventure, the friendships that last long after summer ends, or the confidence that comes from discovering what you can accomplish. For others, it is the opportunity to grow in faith, experience God’s creation, and become part of a community that feels like family. Whatever your connection to Ondessonk, you can help ensure that future generations experience these same opportunities by including Camp in your estate plans.
A planned gift through your will or trust, often called a bequest, is one way to make a lasting commitment to Camp Ondessonk. You can choose to leave a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or a portion of what remains after providing for family and other beneficiaries. These gifts allow you to continue supporting the mission you love while retaining control of your assets during your lifetime. You can also discuss other legacy options with your professional advisor to determine which approach best reflects your wishes.
The impact of a legacy gift can reach far beyond a single summer. Your generosity may help provide scholarships for children who need financial assistance, preserve Camp’s beautiful natural surroundings, maintain the facilities and equipment that make our programs possible, or strengthen the spiritual and character-building experiences that define Ondessonk. Most importantly, your gift helps sustain a place where young people can discover confidence, courage, faith, and belonging.
As you reflect on the year and look toward the future, consider what you hope to pass on to the next generation. If Camp Ondessonk has made a difference in your life or the life of someone you love, including Camp in your estate plans is a meaningful way to carry that impact forward. If you have already made this commitment, please accept our heartfelt thanks. Your generosity is part of the foundation on which future generations will build their own Camp stories.
