We’re looking for more volunteers to join us for a rewarding experience at Karis Family Camp! 

These camps bring together people with disabilities, their families, and volunteers for a few days filled with laughter, rest, worship, and connection. Rooted in our Christian faith, Family Camp reflects the heart of Karis—and we’d love for you to be part of it. 

We’re especially looking for volunteers for our upcoming week-long camp at Elim Lodge (Lakehurst, ON) from August 24–29. Whether you come on your own or bring your family, you’ll be helping to create an accessible and joy-filled space where everybody belongs. 

Other upcoming Family Camp opportunities include: 

  • Windsor, ON – September 5–6 
  • Jackson’s Point, ON – September 26–28 
  • Saskatoon, SK – September 26–28 

There’s no special experience required. Volunteers support campers and families through one-on-one connections, group activities, meals, or simply being present and engaged.
