What Carolina Bible Camp and Retreat does
Mission
Provide a facility and opportunities for Christian recreation, education, and fellowship through seven organized week long summer encampments, a winter encampment in January, and as a retreat center through out the year. We strive to keep tuition fees for summer and winter camp affordable therefore operating these program services at a financial loss. Only our full year staff are paid, encampment staff are all volunteers. Individual and organization donors are crucial to our ability to meet our operational budgets. Scholarships are available to financially help those in need to attend our encampments.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Summer Camp: We had 733 campers ages 9-19 and 309 volunteer adult staff to participate over 7 weeks of summer encampments. Each week has a theme around which the activities, classes, times of worship, and personal devotion are centered. Campers are involved in activities such as sports, crafts, team building, and personal Christian development.
$290,406 spent$192,764 earned by the program74% of program spendingRetreats: We rent the facility for church, civic, and family groups to use for Christian centered retreat events. Weddings are also a popular use of the facility. Group sizes vary from 50 to 250 people. We also host annual retreat weekends for young adults, ladies groups, men's groups, teen groups, and our volunteer staff groups.
$77,885 spent$96,271 earned by the program20% of program spendingWinter Camp: Winter camp which is typically over the Martin Luther King holiday weekend. In 2024 we had 122 campers and 59 volunteer staff for an extended weekend encampment. The purpose of winter camp is to give campers a chance to reconnect since being together in the summer. There is a theme that centers the classes and activities of the weekend. Winter camp is a special event being smaller and more intimate.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $2.5M to $2.7M (+9%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 0% · 2021 3% · 2022 0% · 2023 0% · 2024 0% · 2025 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $1k → $30k.
4 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 84% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of CAROLINA BIBLE CAMP AND RETREAT’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
CAROLINA BIBLE CAMP AND RETREAT leans on a few funders — its largest provides 40% of grant income and the top three 83%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
89% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund CAROLINA BIBLE CAMP AND RETREAT.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2019 67% · 2020 100% · 2021 97% · 2022 99% · 2023 99% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
83% of CAROLINA BIBLE CAMP AND RETREAT's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $31k that is directly attributable, 65% of it comes from funders outside North Carolina, across 2 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $157k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
