Overview

Mission

To operate a summer Christian youth camp

What it reported doing in 2025

Provide camping facilities and campground equipment for use by other church groups and non-profit organizations to hold youth retreats, reunions, family camps and youth camps. Six groups comprised of approximately 392 total campers used the Camp Colorado facilities for these purposes in 2025.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
