Because of your generous support, the Tim Partridge Sponsorship Program helps children and youth from across our region and beyond experience the life-changing impact of Camp Shalom.
Here’s how it works: Camp Shalom partners with local churches, agencies and community organizations that identify children and youth who would benefit from a camp experience. These trusted partners also provide ongoing support and follow-up within their communities.
Each year, spaces are set aside in our summer programs for campers who may otherwise be unable to attend because of financial barriers. Partner organizations contribute the first $200 toward each qualified camper’s registration, with the remaining cost funded through events such as the Pedal Car Grand Prix, Annual Fun Run and Alumni Worship Nights, as well as monthly donors, camper sponsorship partners and individual gifts.
To everyone who has already supported the Tim Partridge Sponsorship Program, thank you! Your generosity is helping remove financial barriers and giving campers an opportunity to belong, grow and experience the love of Jesus.
We look forward to sharing stories of the lives being impacted through this important ministry. We know you will be encouraged to see how God continues to work through Camp Shalom.
The Tim Partridge Sponsorship Program, formerly known as Stand in the Gap, helps remove financial barriers so children who could not otherwise afford to attend Camp Shalom can experience a life-changing week at camp.
The program was created by Tim Partridge during his 27 years of faithful service at Camp Shalom. Following his retirement, it was renamed in his honour to recognize his lasting commitment to ensuring every child has the opportunity to belong, grow, have fun and experience the love of Jesus at camp.
