STEP 3 (Optional):
Apply for the CAMP ROGER LEADERSHIP INVESTMENT GRANT
Use the link below to apply for Camp Roger's $2500 Leadership Investment Grant.
Camp Roger will award Leadership Investment Grants to applicants who are people of color and/or have significant financial needs or hardships. Grants are awarded for use towards college tuition, trade school, or other leadership programs as an investment into their future.
Working at Camp Roger or Camp Scottie prepares individuals for lives of service and leadership in God's kingdom in many ways.
Giving a summer to serve at Camp comes with a sacrifice of time and lower income. There are challenges for many, but unfortunately, some face greater barriers than others. Camp is striving to create a space of belonging for all individuals on summer staff and desires to prepare leaders for God's service.
Applications must be completed and submitted before the applicant's Group Interview Day. Individuals who are offered a summer job will be notified at that time if they will receive a Leadership Investment Grant.
Grant recipients will be chosen by an anonymous group of individuals. Recipients will remain anonymous.
