About us

Swamp Corps mission

Mission statement

Partnering with God and the Next Generation to establish a perennial Swamp Camp reasonably reached by every child on the planet.

One week can change the world.

As the primary generative program of Swamp Camp Mission Alliance (S.C.M.A.), Swamp Corps establishes perennial camps wherever invited and ensures its efforts, via the S.C.M.A. value-driven management system, are strategically resourced, responsibly governed, and intentionally scaled without dilution of culture or mission.

How the missions connect

Three missions, one flow

Each has its own mission, suited to its work. Read in order; they are one flow: from the alliance, to the team that goes, to the child at camp.
