Camp Alandale

Camp Alandale exists to help abused children find healing. Go to our website www.campalandale.org for more information.

Children ages 9-18 who are living in foster homes or group homes in Orange and Riverside Counties are invited for a week in the summer and a weekend in the winter. In the summer there are 2 children for each counselor and a total of 24 children. In the winter there are 12 children and 12 counselors for a weekend. After a child has been to camp, no matter where they live or who they are living with

, they are always eligible to return to camp twice a year, every year, until they graduate from high school.

So thankful for an amazing JC Training weekend 💛
We shared lots of laughs, learned together, and spent time preparing for summer camp.

There is something special about watching young people step up to serve + love foster youth well. We are expectant for all the Lord has in store this summer!

Camp is just around the corner, and we still need counselors! If you’ve been thinking about serving this summer, we’d love to have you!

See you all at our Summer Kick-Off! ☀️

“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer.” Psalm 18:2

Thank you Lord Jesus for another season of camp with these precious children. We finished the last winter camp of 2026! What an incredible season of getting to reunite back with our campers, learn about what the Body of Christ is, and create new memories up in the mountains. Thank you again for every person involved who helps make camp happen.
Our next camp event is our ladies brunch coming up in 1 month, and then on to summer camps! Can’t wait to see you there. ☀️

Middle School Winter Camp! ❄️

We were thankful to find patches of snow to play in! When snow does show up, it’s often the campers’ first time experiencing it. Grateful for time spent playing games, reading The Bible, phone-free days, learning more about God + enjoying His creation together. What a gift!

Join us for our annual Women’s Brunch + Basket Fundraiser! This is one of our favorite and most joy-filled events of the year! 🌼

This special brunch helps raise funds for camper sponsorships, allowing Camp Alandale to remain a place where foster youth can attend summer and winter camp year after year at no cost to them.

If you or your business would like to donate a basket, we would love to partner with you. There’s also a sign-up link available on our website.

We can’t wait to see you there! Invite your friends and come enjoy a beautiful morning together! ☀️

High school camp is complete! It’s always so special being with campers who have been coming to camp for so many years. We’re incredibly grateful for these relationships. It was an amazing week with amazing counselors and amazing campers. Thank you to everyone who has been praying. We’re especially thankful we had beautiful weather right before the snow hit.
