State Service Project - Victory Junction

• Victory Junction has enriched the lives of more than 11,000 children and families since opening in 2004 and welcomed children from 47 states and three countries.
• The cost of sending a child to camp is valued at $2,500, but no child or family incurs that cost thanks to generous donors.
• Since 2004, 9,234 volunteer positions have been filled. Last year, volunteers sacrificed an estimated 76,222 hours to assist at Victory Junction.
• Victory Junction serves 24 chronic medical conditions and serious illnesses such as, but not limited to, Autism, Cancer, Craniofacial Anomalies, Diabetes, Hemophilia, Sickle Cell and Spina Bifida. For a full list, please visit www.victoryjunction.org.
• Twenty-seven hospitals partner with Victory Junction to deliver exceptional health care to campers with a variety of needs.
• The camp, located in Randleman, N.C., is built on 84 acres and donated by Richard and Lynda Petty.
• To help you can donate money or service. Please visit the website for more information.
• In-Kind donations include homemade quilts, afghans, teddy bears, etc. Instructions are on the website.

You can help make dreams come true! Victory Junction was built by charitable contributions and continues to function entirely on donations. Thousands of donors like you have made it possible to give children and their families a unique experience, free of charge. No donation is too large or too small. Every little bit helps, and every penny of every contribution counts.
