Sunset Lake Camp (WA) Project

Overview

The Sunset Lake Camp (WA) Project is one of our many efforts based in North America. Each year, Maranatha works with organizations in the United States and Canada to provide volunteer labor for various construction or renovation projects.

Sunset Lake Camp is a moderately sized camp in North America that provides programming to more than 700 kids each summer. In addition, it hosts Seattle Children’s Hospital, local police, and dozens of other groups. The camp employs four full-time staff, but only one full-time maintenance worker. With the increasing age of the more than 60 buildings spread out over 390 acres of land, repairs have become a priority.

Volunteers will renovate a house, this includes a bathroom and a kitchen remodel and can use volunteers with skills in the following: flooring, electrical, plumbing, sheetrocking, cabinet installation and painting. If you are skilled in any of these areas, please join the interest list and/or email volunteer@maranatha.org as we are in need of more skilled volunteers.

Project Stats: $24,150 (115 volunteer days x 7hrs per workday x $30/hr)
