There are over 15,000 Arizona children in foster care, all who have suffered some degree of abuse, abandonment or neglect. Left unchecked, it is common for them to grow up and experience homelessness or incarceration. Many won’t graduate high school and few will go to college. However, Royal Family KIDS Camp has PROVEN to change the lives and trajectory of children in foster care. At camp the kids experience unconditional love through God and our amazing volunteers. Our one week camp provides kids with amazing experiences for life-long memories including:

  • Horseback riding
  • Zip lining
  • Bible study
  • Worship/Songs
  • Fishing
  • Field games
  • And more!

Along with many awesome activities, camp is highlighted with a special birthday party for all of the children since many of them do not get to celebrate their birthdays. We need YOU to join us for camp and help show these amazing children the love of God. Even if you’ve never worked with kids in foster care, your involvement and support will make a huge impact on their lives. Sign up below or contact Kyle Treude for more information. Come join us for RFKC 2025! It’s the place to be!

Royal Family Kids’ Camp is a one week camp specifically designed for kids ages 7-11 that have survived abuse, neglect and abandonment. All the children have similar backgrounds. There is no embarrassing finger pointing or laughing. Some have physical scars and others have emotional scars, but they all have them.

  • Horseback riding
  • Fishing
  • Hiking
  • Zip lining/rockwall climbing
  • Human Foosball
    and much, much more!!

RFKC summer camps have demonstrated since 1985 to make a huge difference in the lives of kids in foster care!

Each night includes special entertainment including camp fires, game night and even a birthday party for everyone. Knowing that some of these children never get a birthday party or even know when their birthday is, RFKC creates a huge celebration. The party includes cake, ice cream, party favors and a bag full of gifts for each child, making this one of the favorite activities of the week.

Your support goes directly to our camp and goes a long way to helping young children become great adults.

What Camp Leaders Are Saying

Every year God gives me 365 days that I get to choose what I will do. This June I know 6 of those days will be filled with the Holy Spirt uplifting Foster Kids.

Royal Family Kids Camp is the best way to proactively impact a child’s future in a positive way. This is a great way to invest in our kids’ future to be productive, healthy and engaged citizens in our community!!

What I love about camp is that there is a 1:1 ratio of adults to campers so I never feel like I am on my own in any situation.

Star Fish Story

While walking on the beach one day,  I saw a Starfish by the shore,
And everywhere I looked it seemed I saw a thousand more.
Then what to my surprised appeared? A boy of nine or ten,
And as the Starfish washed ashore He threw them back again…
I smiled at such a futile task to save this population,
“One fish won’t make a difference son, you can’t save this situation.”
He stooped and picked up one more fish, then looking right at me,
“I can make a difference for this one, sir,” and returned it to the sea.
So I went and gathered all my friends, my brothers and my cousins.
We joined in with that little boy and save Starfish by the dozens.
There are many to be rescued—many “Starfish” on life’s shore.
Let’s make a difference like that lad—by saving just one more
