Our Mission & Impact
Camp Legacy exists to be an IMPACT CAMP—redirecting the hearts and minds of youth toward the truth of who they are in Christ and the purpose for which they were created.
An Impact Camp
Camp Legacy was conceived and designed with the intent of being an IMPACT CAMP, a camp that assists in redirecting our children's attention to factual realities, both physical and spiritual. Our goal is to reestablish attributes such as character, integrity, honesty, and compassion. We believe that these attributes are vital in becoming a productive adult; individuals that don't work toward possessing these values will eventually see the deficiencies manifest themselves in their choices and consequences.
Reaching a New Generation
The youth of today are not the children of yesteryear. They are the children of an era of technology living in a virtual, visual, high-tech and ultra-fast world. This life has altered, if not completely changed, many of their realities. However, even though their realities may have changed, we all know the consequences of a purposeless life. We believe that if our children are to become the productive adults of tomorrow, they must understand their worth, their purpose, and their value…today.
Prevention Over Remediation
I truly believe our society is making a grave mistake by not engaging, encouraging, inspiring, and challenging our children at an early stage in life. We believe if children understand their life worth and are taught to believe they were born with a purpose and are presented with consequences, both good and bad, they will not only hold onto this information but value it as they move forward, applying many of these lessons into their daily lives. This, in return, will make our youth more cognizant of their decisions and choices.
Partnership & Hope
We at Camp Legacy and in partnership with the Brothers of Cyrene, believe that this is the viable solution that will assist in lowering teenage pregnancy, decrease the number of high school dropouts, crime, hopelessness, and despair. Prevention is so much better than remediation. We sincerely believe that Camp Legacy, with your help, will be the prevention for many of our youth, especially those that are considered at risk.
Thank you in advance for your consideration in partnering with us in making this vision a reality.
