Overview

Mission

Camp Mack provides a sanctuary where all people are welcomed to connect with God, experience creation and build Christian community. This is met by providing exceptional hospitality in a welcoming and beautiful space for proprietary camp and retreat programs and partnerships with community programs, organizations, and families.

What it reported doing in 2025

The summer camp program provides supportive small and large group communities, promotes nature and science education, develops outdoor skills, encourages healthy physical activity in the outdoors, and facilitates personal faith journeys. The program builds camper confidence by providing the environment and activities that support personal challenge and growth. Campers are given options for 3-day, 5-day, and 6-day camps based on grade level and interest. Additionally, day camps are offered during the three scheduled week-long breaks for local school districts to provide positive and healthy supervision of kindergarten through grade 5 students. Approximately half of camp leaders are hired and the other half are volunteers, trained and vetted by senior staff.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 70% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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

STRONG - 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 some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
