Selection, 2006 screening and
training of the staff and administrative team will resume after January
1st. The budget for the entire effort in 2005 was $25,000. This amount includes
all camp fees, transportation, supplies, training, and other expenses. We
welcome donations of supplies or finances from
businesses, foundations,
and individuals.
Businesses
In past years local businesses have given over $400 worth of gift cards and
over $5000 in cash. We are asking local businesses if they would continue to
partner with us in making this camp a reality for the children of Ramsey
County. As we begin planning and preparing the camp in 2006, RFKC is
in need of donations, in the form of cash or gift certificates, or specific
items, which are needed for actual camp operation. Gift certificates or
checks may be made out to Royal Family Kids’ Camp and sent to:
Royal Family Kids' Camp
845 Summit Avenue
St. Paul, MN 55105

Foundations
Royal Family Kids’ Camp of St. Paul, MN is
looking for partners in our endeavor to serve the abused and neglected kids
of our metro counties. We welcome gifts of any size but are looking
specifically for contributions in the $2000 to $4000 range. One other major
foundation has made a gift of $2300. Money raised in excess of the
current budget will be used to finance the camp in the following year. We
were so thrilled with the results from the 2005 RFKC in Minnesota. Securing
the necessary funding for 2006 will allow us to focus on programs ahead of
time to meet this need in an enhanced manner.
Checks may be made out to Royal Family Kids’ Camp and sent to:

Individuals
A great amount of our funding for camp each year comes from
individuals - individuals with a desire to make a difference in the life of
a child. Individual donations from one dollar to hundreds of dollars help to
make this vision a reality. Thank you for your interest in being part of
this effort.

This winter we will be making an inventory of our remaining and needed
supplies for 2006. When a list of needed items is available, it will be
posted on this page. We can always use gently worn or new clothes for
children ages 7-11, especially jeans (for horseback riding) and swim suits
or trunks. If you would like to donate items, please bring them to 845
