*NEW* 2027 Fundraiser Money Shares will depend on how many youth work during a fundraiser event, as well as, how many hours/shifts a camper serves during the fundraiser. 

——|||——

Example: The profit from the fundraiser is $300.  There were 3 youth who served at the fundraiser: Sally, Jimmy, and Charley. 

-- Sally serves on Saturday from 4-6pm.  Her share is $50.

-- Jimmy serves on Sat from 4-6pm AND Sunday from 8a-10:30am. His share is $100.

-- Charley serves on Sat from 4-6pm AND Sunday from 8a-10:30am AND Sunday from 10:45a-1pm. His share is $150.

Our hope is that if a  summer camp youth works every shift of every 2026-2027 fundraisers, the total amount of Fundraiser Money Shares should cover most, if not all, of the total cost of summer camp, which is $1600.  

2027 Summer Camp Total cost is $1600 per camper. [it's been between $1500-$1800 every year since 2021 to send a youth to camp; dependent on number of youth.]

If a summer camp youth chooses not to participate in any, some, or all of the 2027 Summer Camp fundraisers, it will be the financial obligation and responsibility of the camper's family to pay what remains of the total camp cost of $1600, by following the camp payment schedule for their youth to attend and participate in 2027 Summer Camp.

From 2017-2026, the OLD way fundraiser allocation ran like this:

-- all of the fundraiser money was placed together

-- it was split evenly amongst all of the summer campers, regardless of how many hours the campers served during a fundraiser

-- if a youth did not participate in a fundraiser, they earned the same amount as a youth who spent all weekend serving at the fundraiser.

From 2026 going forward, the NEW way fundraiser allocation will run is like this:

-- take the amount raised during a fundraiser  and divide it by the total number of hours worked in a weekend.

-- Real Life example:  Oct. 3&4 raised $2145 in profit.  78.25 hours were worked [some youth worked multiple shifts].  Each hour [share] is worth $27.41.  

-- Sat, 4-6pm shift earned $54.82

-- Sun, 8a-10:30am shift earned $68.53

-- Sun, 10:45a-1p shift earned $61.67

-- for 2026 summer camp, we fundraised $20.8k! The Old fundraiser allocation gave each of our 26 campers about $860, leaving each family about $740. 

If we had run the NEW fundraiser allocation for 2026 summer camp; the individual family contribution would have ranged from $175 - $934 with the average being about $632.

Oct. 3+4th -- $27.41 an hour

Oct. 24th -- $46.10 an hour

Oct. 25th -- $19 an hour

Sunday breakfast [setup & event] -- $5.25 an hour
