An incredible experience tailored especially for kids in foster care

Give a Child in Foster Care four days of your summer

Respond to the Foster Care Crisis

A staggering number of children in our community have experienced abuse and neglect. Over 800 children are in foster care in Yellowstone County alone and that number increases every year.

It’s overwhelming—where do we even start? If you’ve ever thought. “I want to do something to help these kids, but I just don’t know how…” Haven Camps may be your opportunity.

Haven Camps exist to provide a safe & fun camping experience for children who are currently involved in CPS in Division 3 (including Stillwater, Yellowstone and Carbon Counties) where they will have the opportunity to build new friendships, enjoy creation and learn about Jesus.

About Haven Camps

Haven Camps, a ministry of Faith Chapel, desires to mobilize the local church to provide the opportunity for children who have experienced relational trauma to participate in a loving, hopeful, safe environment. We provide this opportunity through camping experiences filled with meaningful, life changing moments. We believe this is a creative way to answer God’s call to care for “the least of these.”
