Gifts "In honor of" or "In Memory of"

We are glad to receive one-time gifts "In honor of" or "In memory of" loved ones. For these gifts we send a tax-deductible receipt to the donor, and we send the family or individual a special card that names the donor and the loved one for whom the gift was given in memory or honor of.

 

Memorial Fund

If your loved one had a passion for helping children, or was a supporter of Camp David of the Ozarks, you may want to set up a Memorial Fund, as a continuation of their legacy of giving. 


If you’re considering a Memorial Gift our goal is to make it easy for you during that difficult time. We will send receipts for tax-deductible donations directly to individual donors, as well as provide donation records to families so they can thank individual donors at their convenience.


Selling a Business or Stocks?

If you are at the place in life where you are selling off a business, stocks, or other assets, you can give significantly more to charities of your choice, and also keep more if you do a little planning before you sell!

Are there different needs?

 

General Fund
All undesignated gifts will go into the General Fund, which helps to pay everything from office expenses to utilities. Monthly supporters are needed to help support the general operating expenses  and keep the camp going.

 

Sponsor A Child
Angel Tree Campers are offered free scholarships, which are provided by caring sponsors like you. A sponsor can be an individual, a family, or a Sunday School class. *It is $100 per sponsorship. In August, after camp, sponsors will receive a photo prayer card and a personalized  “Thank you” note from their sponsored camper. We ask sponsors to commit to praying for their camper throughout the school year.

 

Mentoring Program
The mentoring program is free for the mentees, and the mentors are all volunteer. Donations to this program pay for training, supervision, mailings, insurance and other program costs. You can support the program on a monthly basis, or by a one time donation.

 

Building Fund
There is always construction going on at camp, from remodeling the old camp kitchen to building new cabins. Our big building project for Spring 2012 is a new office building. Please consider a one time gift or monthly support to the Building Fund.

 

Staff Support
Each staff person that serves at CDO is required to raise missionary support  to help off-set the expenses in this non-profit organization. Whether it’s missionary support for the camp director’s family, or support for a summer volunteer, please consider being a part of giving hope by supporting those who are serving God out in the trenches.

 

Vehicle Donation
You could make a significant donation of a gently used vehicle, which would be a huge blessing to the camp. Learn more...

 

Wish List
To help with our operating budget, we post current wish lists so donors can be a part of the ministry by providing items off our list. We have been amazed over the years at how God has provided everything from an ice maker for our commercial kitchen to good trail horses. Learn more...

 

*The actual registration cost is $300 per camper, so CDO matches each camper with two sponsors, plus we receive some sponsorship funds from Angel Tree.
