Donation - RIDGE Non-Profit 501c3 (ID#41-2858200)

Every young person reaches a moment where one opportunity, one mentor, or one encouraging voice can change the direction of their life. We want to create a place where those moments happen.

We are building a youth vocational training and outdoor leadership camp — a place where young people can gain real skills, discover their strengths, build confidence, and see a future they can be proud of.

Too many young people today feel lost, overwhelmed, or unsure of their place in the world. Many have the potential — they just need someone to show them the possibilities.

Our camp will offer:

• Hands-on training and certifications

• Work experience and life skills

• Outdoor recreation and leadership activities

• Mentorship and encouragement

• Exposure to real career and volunteer paths

This is how we help young people grow into confident, capable, self-sufficient adults who thrive and better their communities.

Our focus is youth of all backgrounds, especially those who are feeling hopelessness and need direction, opportunity, or a safe community. We’ll partner with schools, churches, low income, outreach programs, and other youth organizations to reach as many young people as possible.

To begin building, we urgently need:

• To financially secure the land

• Create an access road

• Construct a driving bridge

• An excavator (ground moving equipment)

Your support will address these urgent needs so we can begin to offer programming and instructional opportunities expeditiously.

Your support helps us create a place where young people feel valued, capable, and inspired to build a better future. Every donation gets us closer to opening doors for someone who needs a chance — and every share helps our mission reach further.

Together, we can build a space where hope grows, confidence is gained, and young lives change for the better. Thank you for believing in this mission and in the younger generation who will one day lead our community.

In 2023 our family bought 80 acres with the dream of developing a youth camp and vocational training facility. We’ve faced many challenges that we’ve overcome through perseverance, hope, and much prayer. Our hard work and determination have always made it possible to keep going and build our vision.

We are We are believing, dreaming, seeking, building, and working to make this youth camp a reality to offer hope to young people and to help make their dreams become reality. We invite you to dream, build, and partner with us to provide the gift of hope to the next generation.
