Help Restore The Wonder

Every child who attends Restore The Wonder comes completely free of charge.

No registration fee. No cost to their foster family.

We make that commitment because we believe every child deserves the opportunity to experience a week where they are known, celebrated, encouraged, and reminded just how much they matter.

Your generosity makes that possible.

Two Camps. 110 Kids. One Mission.

In 2027, Restore The Wonder will host camps in Southeast Missouri and Kansas City, serving approximately 110 children who have experienced foster care.

It will take more than $210,000 to make Restore The Wonder possible in 2027.

That investment covers not only the core cost of camp, but everything that makes the Restore The Wonder experience what it is—birthday celebrations and gifts, camp shirts, chapel experiences, special activities, Bibles, volunteer training and support, and countless details designed to make every child feel incredibly special.

And for every child and foster family we serve:

The cost is $0. Will you join us?

What Could Your Gift Make Possible?

$25 — Give a Bible

Put God’s Word into the hands of a camper to take home.

$400 — Give Half a Week

Cover half of one child’s core camp cost.

$800 — Send a Child to Camp

Cover the core cost of camp for one child—including lodging, meals, activities, and the camp experience itself.

$3,200 — Sponsor a Pod

Cover the core camp cost for four children.

$9,600 — Sponsor a Cabin

Cover the core camp cost for twelve children.

These sponsorships represent the core cost of a camper’s week. The additional experiences that make Restore The Wonder so special are made possible through gifts of every size.

Every gift matters. Every gift becomes part of a child’s story.

Our Volunteers Invest, Too.

Our volunteers don’t just give a week of their time.

Most also personally contribute $600 toward their own cost of attending camp. They give their time, their energy, and financially invest in the mission because they believe these kids are worth showing up for.

Their investment helps offset a portion of our overall camp expenses. The rest is made possible through generous individuals, churches, businesses, and community partners.

Want to Make a Larger Investment?

Some of our greatest partners are churches, businesses, foundations, and individuals who want to make a significant investment in the children we serve.

Whether that’s sponsoring a cabin, underwriting a major part of the camp experience, or helping meet one of our larger needs, we’d love to talk with you personally about how you can partner with Restore The Wonder.

BECOME A PARTNER

You Make Free Possible.

We don’t want finances to become one more barrier standing between a child and an experience created especially for them.

So we make a promise:

Restore The Wonder will be free for every child we serve.

Your generosity makes it possible for us to tell every foster family:

“We’ve got it covered. Just come be a kid.”
