Today, more and more people are choosing to ask for donations to charity in lieu of flowers at the funeral of a loved one.  We are grateful for those who choose ECM Camps as the charity of choice to collect donations in memory of a family member or friend.  Donations can often be organized through your funeral home, or donations can be made directly on our payments page.

Bequests and other legacy gifts are a significant way in which Stayner and Mishewah can continue to maintain, build, and improve facilities and programs.  Abundance Canada partners with you and with us in giving the guidance and process to leave your money to the family you love and the ministries you support.

“Pay Their Way” Camper Sponsorship

Sponsoring a week of camp is the perfect way to give a child a week to remember that will impact their life and faith. Our Pay Their Way program can provide funds to families who apply for sponsorship.

General Operating Budget

Unrestricted operating donations assist us in meeting the ongoing operating financial obligations of our organization, including paying our staff salaries, recurring bills, and unexpected costs that may arise outside of capital projects.  General operating donations are greatly appreciated!

Operating Projects

If a special project is overfunded, donations will be reallocated to our next special project or to general operating if all special projects are fully funded.  Our current special projects are listed below:

REBOOT Jr High Retreat (Coming September 2023)

We are excited to be premiering REBOOT, a weekend geared toward Jr. High students.  If you loved JR Pitch, you will love REBOOT, a chance for students to upgrade their faith, and pause to reboot as they journey into a new school year.  We invite you to join us and donate to help us cover the upfront costs of beginning a new endeavour.  We also invite you to consider volunteering to set-up, run and tear down on the weekend.

Capital Projects

Capital donations help us to maintain and improve our physical property. If a particular project is over-funded or if it is determined that we cannot move ahead we will reallocate these funds to our next capital project in order of priority.  Capital donations are currently going to the following projects:

Stayner Cabin Refurbishment

As Stayner’s programming has transitioned from overnight kids camps to day camps, and our accommodations have been used primarily by family campers and rental groups, we have begun reimagining what our cabins can look like.  This summer we were able to complete renovations on one cabin, with plans underway to refurbish even more to be convenient and usable for families, including installation of new flooring and wall paneling, replacing windows as needed, building new queen sized platform beds and bunks, and a fresh new paint job on the outside.  We hope these new family cabins will be a cozy and comfortable home-away-from-home for families coming to join us at Stayner Camp.

IT Infrastructure

Technology is ever changing!  The IT needs of our camps and campers continues to grow and change year to year, and we are constantly working to modernize our camp systems, networks, WiFi, security and more.
