Camp Memphis Registration (Onsite)
What are the factors that contribute to young people having opportunities for a high quality of life in our community? This question fuels the vision & mission of For The Kingdom and resides at the heart of our daily decisions. As the largest agency in Raleigh we recognize it is not enough for us to pop up and offer a few weeks of camp in the summer. Our vision had to be expanded to effect change year round. FTK exists to provide for the basic human needs of our neighbors, while also providing development, hope and Christ-like love for all people through camps, retreats, adventures and live events.
