Royal Family Kids

Royal Family KIDS is an international nonprofit organization started in 1985 to provide a week of overnight Camp during the summer as well as a monthly Club and Mentoring program during the school year for local children who have experienced abuse, abandonment, or neglect.  With the attention of one camp counselor for every two children, the campers enjoy a wonderful week of fun and worship.  There is swimming, fishing, games, a Tea Party, crafts, music, and wood working.  Since many never had a birthday party, one day is designated as “Everyone’s Birthday!” with a party, presents and a birthday cake for each child.  All children leave Camp with a picture album of themselves enjoying their Camp activities with other children and staff.  They also receive their own Bible and an MP3 player loaded with Camp songs. Our Club and Mentoring Program, begun in 2014, allows us to build a year-round relationship with our campers and take the sadness out of the last day of Camp. We meet with the children for several hours once a month during the school year for structured activities and mentoring in a safe and friendly atmosphere.
