Sustaining Legacy: The AFJRV Future Camper Society

The AFJRV Future Camper Society was established to honor individuals who have included Jordan River Village in their long-term plans through a bequest, trust, beneficiary designation, or other financial arrangements.

To recognize your commitment, we will honor your gift permanently on our website, in our Annual Reports, and on the Future Camper Society Wall at the Village entrance. Listing your name highlights the importance of intergenerational giving within the Jordan River Village community and sends a strong message of encouragement to campers, families, and supporters worldwide.

All donations received through The AFJRV Future Camper Society will directly fund the free participation of future generations of children with serious illnesses. This unwavering dedication ensures that as long as there are children facing serious health challenges, the Village will be there to support and uplift them.

To notify us of your legacy intention or existing plans, contact us or simply complete our online Future Camper Society Form.

If you have not yet included us in your estate or financial plans and would like to learn more, please fill out a form to Request More Information.

  • There is no membership fee or minimum gift. Every legacy gift is important to us and makes an impact.
  • In celebration of your commitment, we will recognize your gift in our Annual Report, here on our website and in other publications (unless anonymity is preferred).
