Project Description

ARK SUMMER CAMP

The Ark Summer Camp focuses on caring and bringing people together on a short camping holiday. The Ark is put on for families and children who have fled the conflict zone and feel alone, including low income families and single parents who have suffered abuse. Door of Hope’s primary focus is giving an experience to these families who struggle financially with food and necessities back home and could only dream of going camping and spending time with others.

With the vision on their hearts, our project leaders….Zina and Alex and their volunteers receive the support from Door of Hope to run the Ark Summer Camp for 10 days on 3 consecutive occasions throughout the summer months for traumatised boys and girls and adults. In 2018 the camp started with nearly 25 adults and children. In 2021 the camp has grown with over 80 people attending and it continues to grow in popularity.
