MWBC expresses its deep appreciation to everyone that has contributed and/or continues to contribute to our yearly fundraising efforts. We have reached or exceeded our goals in recent years thanks to your generosity! For 2016 MWBC is launching a Congregational Fund Raising Challenge. Here are the details:
Congregational Fundraising Challenge
As all of you know, each summer MWBC touches many lives! The dedication of each and every volunteer and supporter to the ministry of Christian camping is vital to the success of each session of MWBC.
In preparing for each summer’s camping program, the MWBC board is challenged year after year to meet the financial requirements for operating seven weeks of camp. This year is no exception! Last year, we asked for $14,000 from our supporters to meet our financial needs. Many individuals and congregations generously donated toward the work and over $15,000 was given!
The 2016 camping season is just 5 months away! Because we used $3000 for camperships this summer, the campership fund needs to be refilled. In addition, the cost of feeding campers and operating each week will need to be supplemented by donations in order to keep the camper fee at an affordable rate. This February, we will be putting out a challenge to all congregations asking each church family to work as a team in finding fun ways to raise money for MWBC. Each congregation may choose how they would like to approach the month long fundraising challenge. At the conclusion of the challenge, each congregation will tally and present their gifts for MWBC 2016.

Thank you so much!
