Support
Support
Every year Wonposet Camps endeavors to provide hundreds to campers with a lifechanging experience. We believe God is using Wonposet each summer to do just that. Everything we do could not be possible without the generous donations of our supporters.
How can you help?
Wonposet supporters help out in so many ways. We have supporters who send in monthly contributions, annual contributions, or one-time gifts.
We have supporters who give of their time and become volunteers. We also have supporters who help during the off season of camp. These supporters help to get things ready for winter and help get things ready for camp season.
Whatever you can makes a difference. Together we with everyone's support we are making Wonposet Camps a palce where lives are changed forever.
Volunteer
Volunteer
Ever since Wonposet Camps began, the campgrounds have been filled with volunteers. This incredible ministry would not have lasted all these years without people giving of their time to help make things happen.
Whether you support us physically, financially, or spiritually we depend on you to reach the thousands of youth, adults and families we share the Gospel with each year.
What we're looking for
Skilled workers who can offer one week at a time: carpenters, electricians, plumbers, etc.
Wonposet liaisons to assist in promoting Wonposet conferences, events and fundraising activities in their churches and communities.
Volunteers to assist in constructing sets and sewing costumes for program productions.
Volunteers for “grunt work” – various cleaning and upkeep functions around the camp.
In addition, there are numerous opportunities for large projects, well-suited for volunteer crews with significant skilled laborers available for several days at a time. These projects include building remodeling, landscaping, roofing, carpeting/flooring, utilities, etc.
For more information regarding volunteer opportunities, contact us.

Our Needs
Wonposet Needs Your Help
“How can we help?” This is a question we are often asked by friends of Wonposet Camps. In addition to financial gifts, the ministry has been blessed over the years by “in-kind” gifts of equipment, vehicles and services. These gifts save the ministry thousands of dollars and often provide Hume with equipment or resources that it could not otherwise afford or obtain.
The list below includes many items that will help advance the ministry of Wonposet Camps. Perhaps you have an item that is in good working order, but it is no longer being used. Or you are involved in a business that could support the ministry through one of these in-kind gift opportunities. You can also make a financial gift designated to the purchase of one of these items; please contact us for estimated pricing of the item(s) you are interested in funding.
Please keep in mind that all in-kind gifts are subject to management’s review and acceptance, based on condition and suitability for ministry purposes.

Donations
General Fund
We are always in need of extra funds that can be put to use whereever needed. Would you consider giving to our General Fund? Often times needs come up quickly and the ability to meet those needs with available funds often falls short. Your donation to our general fund help take care of immediate needs like broken air conditioners, vehicle maintainance, and more. Consider donating to this fund now.
Arms Lifted
"Arms Lifted" is our program for monthly support of Wonposet Camps. With your monthly donation you keep our arms lifted and help us do what we do throughout the entire year. Without the generous support of our Arms Lifted team we would not be able to keep our doors open. Consider donating to this vital part of our ministry.
Planned giving is an incredible opportunity for you to make a lasting impact that effects thousands of lives. Please contact us to learn more about Planned giving and how you can make a huge impact at Wonposet Camps.
Living Memorials
This category of giving is for gifts made either “in memory of” loved ones or “in honor of” individuals, couples, groups, or businesses. Often friends of the ministry request that memorial gifts be made to Wonposet Camps in lieu of flowers at a funeral. This type of memorial gift keeps on giving (is a Living Memorial) because it is invested to purchase or construct things that will be used to minister in the lives of campers for several years
