Overview

Mission

Christian camp and conference association's (ccca) mission is to become an indispensable partner for christian camps and conference centers across the united states because of the programs, products and services we provide to members.

What it reported doing in 2024

Member services: we provide educational resources including webinars and publications for member camps, a website with resources and a directory for both members and the public. Each summer we grant funds to member camps for the purpose of covering the cost of a week at camp for underprivileged children with a special focus on kids in the foster care system. Ccca spearheads the nationwide, public-facing campaign, the power of camp, reaching youth leaders, parents and prospective camp staff members. Ccca also offers the thriving boards program to help camp and conference center boards identify strategic next steps and benchmarks needed to create a sustainable future. (continued on schedule o)the 9 to 12 month program is built on a cohort-learning model, which includes reading assignments, interactive faculty presentations and practical dialogue among colleagues.

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 97% 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
