D. OUR “ELEVATOR SPEECH” (external)
|
Brand Promise (slogan or tagline) |
Children with special needs experience Christ through unconditional Love, acceptance and fun! “This ain’t no ordinary Camp” |
|
What do you do? (50 words or less) |
Camp Blessing Texas is a camp for children and young adults who have special needs. We have typical camp activities like archery and horseback. We have nightly worship and a message through a drama. Everything is used as a tool to point out scriptural truths or allow them to experience Christ in some way through one on one camper to counselor ratio. |
|
Key Endorsements (people or organizations) |
Graceview Baptist church in Tomball, TX (where our founders attend) has provided both campers and volunteer support. Many of the non-profits that help children with special needs will be promoting camp this year (DSHA, Arc of Houston, Family2Family) The Woodlands UMC has agreed to fill a week of camp with campers and volunteers. |
|
Our “BHAG” (Big Holy Audacious Goal) is: |
Build or purchase a facility available for year round ministry. Touching 300+ families per year who need encouragement to persevere. |
