Camp Compass Announces Its Next Decade Legacy Fund
For a decade, as a nonprofit, we have invested in the lives of Allentown’s most precious resource by empowering at-risk youth to achieve their greatest potential. The Next Decade Fund, with a campaign goal of $100,000, will assure our capacity to continue to equip children to achieve their dreams. Our goal of 100 pledges of at least $1,000.00 each will enable us to reach our goal. All gifts to the Camp Compass Academy are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.
In 2000 a formal seed of hope was formally planted in the rough and rocky soil of a low-income neighborhood. That seed of a dream began with a handful of kids, crammed into a cramped 2-door Ford Explorer, clamoring for the help of one teacher who donated his time and talent to empower those students to overcome circumstances of birth and to begin dreaming big dreams and to receive that extra measure of support to achieve their dreams.
Today that seed has blossomed and multiplied to hundreds of students from 6th grade through high school, filling a dilapidated building that has been transformed into a beautiful mentoring center.
Camp Compass growth has been fueled by our faithful friends, community support and several grant awards. To sustain the year-around academic and enrichment program in its center city neighborhood, we must raise $150,000 annually.
To impact young at-risk lives, consistency is vital and consistency assumes a financial safety net. Thus in celebration of our first decade, The Camp Compass Next Decade Legacy Fund will create the financial stability essential to assure Camp Compass Academy will continue to empower children; our most vulnerable population to reach for their dreams.
Funds from the Campaign will be invested and used for emergency improvements to our facility as well as operating needs over the next decade.
Will you join with Camp Compass and step into the future of our youth with an investment gift to The Next Legacy Decade Fund? You may donate now securely on-line using your credit card or help through a mailed donation marked “Next Decade Legacy Fund.”
Thank you in advance for helping Camp Compass Academy serve children for another 10 years.
Warmest Regards,
John F. Annoni
CEO & Founder
