This was the first retreat for some of our youth. They were so excited and loved Camp Glisson! Thank you for a wonderful, spiritual place...

Sponsor a Counselor

 

 

While our Adopt-a-Counselor program allows friends to support a specific counselor with prayers and notes of encouragement, you can also take your involvement to another level and actually sponsor a counselor.

The Sponsor-a-Counselor program involves gifts to the 2010 Glisson Annual Fund totalling $1,600 - equivalent to the stipend one of our summer counselors receives.  By participating, you will receive:
  • a framed photo of your sponsored counselor
  • full biographical information
  • his or her email address
  • a personal note
  • membership in the Friends of Glisson level within the Circle of 100
  • contact with your sponsored counselor, including emails, letters and care packages, will be encouraged

Gifts of any size can help to sponsor a counselor.  Just indicate "sponsor a counselor" in the memo line of your check, or in the comment section of your on-line gift, and your gift will be combined with others to support a member of our summer staff.

Giving groups, such as youth groups, Sunday school classes, alumni groups and civic organizations, are encouraged to combine resources and sponsor a counselor together as a team pledge.  Individuals may also consider approaching civic groups, churches and foundations as partners in their sponsorship.
