Teen Reach Adventure Camp is a week-long summer camp sponsored by McDowell Mountain Church for kids who are or have been in the foster care system.
If you live in Arizona, your donation will be a 100% tax credit and will reduce, dollar-for-dollar, the amount of taxes you will owe on your Arizona state income tax return. In 2024, a single taxpayer can give any amount up to $587 and married couples can give any amount up to $1,173 and receive the tax credit. Your donation does not limit your ability to give under other Arizona tax credits, such as the private and public school tax credits. You can give and benefit under all three tax credits!
TRAC is a positive, faith-based summer camp experience that offers hope and encouragement to foster children who are 12 to 15 years old that may have suffered abuse, neglect or abandonment. The camp is specifically designed to ensure the success of every foster child who attends camp.
Each three-day camp provides a unique ratio of one counselor to every two children, and each camp is single-gender to promote a greater level of comfort between staff and attendees. Through quality time with each child and encouragement, each child leaves camp with a positive outlook on life. Campers explore the wilderness, care for animals, ride on horseback and participate in a low-level challenge course that helps the children recognize the importance of self-respect, teamwork and communication while having fun.
Essentially, TRAC offer encouragement and instills in these teenagers that there is hope and a future for their lives.
Donations in ANY amount are appreciated!
