We are fundraising money to send inner-city students to summer camp.

In 2021, WHOH Detroit took 45 students to Kids Across America. In 2022, we took 96 students to Kids Across America. This year we hope to take 150 students from the Metro Detroit area. We do not want to charge students more than the $200 registration fee because of their financial situation. We need you now more than ever to help us achieve our goal.

As well as water tubing on the lake, archery, and recording original music at the G.H.O.P. recording studio (short for God Honors Our Praise). KAA 3 offers a foundational training ground for spiritual growth, as well as Covenant Family training—what God’s intended model of a family looks and functions like. The purpose is to build a solid foundation in each young believer's faith, while also imparting the truth of the Gospel to those who have not been introduced to the Savior.

Higher Ground (HG) is a Christian Leadership Camp designed to build and equip high school students, ages 14-19, with their primary focus on disciple-making and servant-leadership development in four areas: Character, Vision/Passion, Skills, and Knowledge, all through a biblical framework and perspective.

The Kaleo (Adult Leader)- The Kaleo ministry is designed as a camp within a camp, operating most of the time on a separate schedule apart from the campers' activities. Kaleos enjoy many of the same exciting opportunities and entertaining programs as the campers but spend most of their time with other Kaleos participating in a variety of scheduled camp activities. This schedule includes men's and women's Bible studies, seminars and urban training, boating, swimming, high elements, evening programs, and plenty of time to enjoy the beautiful Ozarks at our 240-acre facility. The uniqueness of the Kaleo ministry is the opportunity for fellow urban youth workers and volunteers from across the country to come together, be trained, fellowship, relax, exchange ideas, play, and build lifelong friendships. All shared in an environment centered around encouraging, equipping, and empowering them to carry on their vital work of impacting our nation's cities for Jesus Christ.
