Camp Changes Lives
At The Salvation Army, we believe every child deserves to experience the joy, adventure, and lasting memories of summer camp.
Thanks to the incredible dedication of our Women’s Auxiliary, more than $10,000 has been raised over the past three years through the Founder's Day Luncheon—helping make Camp Hope possible for the children we serve. Camp Hope is more than just a summer program—it’s a life-changing experience.
Designed for children living at our Purdue Center of Hope or those transitioning into the community, this vibrant 8-week camp nurtures the spirit, mind, and body. Each summer begins with the excitement of Vacation Bible School, followed by weeks filled with hands-on learning, active play, unforgettable field trips, and meaningful connections with dedicated volunteers. Your support fuels these moments.
We truly appreciate your support, which brings joy, builds confidence, and provides the hope and stability every child deserves.
