Summer Staff 2024 Applications
Summer Staff Wage Supplement Grant
This grant is to financially assist qualified individuals who desire to work on summer staff, but the camp salary is not sufficient for their financial commitments. This program provides a one-time grant to supplement summer staff wages for those with financial need. Grants are in addition to summer staff wages, room, board and other incentives. Grants are awarded based on financial need and vary based on situation and available funds.
Who is this grant for?
Potential summer staff who have an essential need for supplemental income in order to work at Covenant Park. Without additional wages, working at camp is not possible.
Who is this grant not for?
Those whose financial support from parents or other sources allows them to work for standard wages at camp.
Those who are looking for “extra” pocket money or are saving up for non-essential purchases.
Those who are looking to match wages with other employment opportunities.
How to apply?
