Mayor Sarah Kile of Gladwin, Mi has Declared and Proclaimed November as Childhood Cancer Awareness GOLD month in Gladwin!!  And to celebraste this victory of awareness we are asking for your help to not only raise awareness but MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF KIDS WHO ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIVES... 

Golden Key Camp  

will ATTEMPT TO BREAK A GUINNESS WORLD RECORD in GLADWIN, MI AND WE NEED YOUR HELP for our end of 2023 Christmas Goal!  

The Guinness World Record we are attempting to break, is for the world's longest line of TENTS !!And since Golden Key Charity is a camp for kids with cancer and other terminal illnesses it's the perfect record to break!  

 

The current record is 721 tents all in a line - our goal is to have a line of 1,000 tents all set up at Golden Key Camp! We are asking you to sponsor a tent after we break the record each tent will be given to a child in Michigan who is fighting an illness such as cancer or other diagnosis for them to have some backyard adventures with their family.  Each tent sponsorship is $200 please set a goal at your office, work, club, organization, or within your family and friends circle to raise the funds, or donate $200 for each sponsorship, any amount you raise or donate over $200 will go to sending children who are fighting cancer or other life threatening illnesses to Golden Key Camp for the greatest adventure we can give these precious families in a devastating time at Golden Key Camp. Help us help kids who are fighting for their lives, LETS BREAK A GUINNESS WORLD RECORD IN GLADWIN TO HONOR THESE CHILDREN!   How many tents will you be willing to sponsor? 

 

The Mission of Golden Key Camp charity nonprofit 501c3 Is to grant wishes to Michigan children who are fighting cancer, we purchased a 55-acre retired youth camp in Gladwin to restore to invite hundreds of children and their families each year. We need help with the restoration, we have dozens of children already on the waiting list that are hopeful to come to Golden Key Camp.  Then tents we are purchasing are $100 and for Every dollar over $100 will go to restoring the camp to make it safe, fun, and awesome for our very special guests.   

​

In the fall of 2022 Golden Key Camp Charity was able to purchase our camp the old Good News Camp on M30 in Gladwin and we are restoring it to provide amazing camp experiences for families diagnosed with childhood cancer, day trips or overnight stays! With fully inclusive amenities cabins, lodging, cafeteria, clubhouse, a private lake, we are installing a 1-mile nature trail with dozens of handicap accessible playground features along the trail.  But we have a substantial amount of repair and updating and upgrading before we can flip our open sign for families who are fighting childhood cancer. Our kitchen and dining hall up and the bathhouse / community building, cabins and 1 mile nature trail through the woods and lots of sensory play equipment and play structures for kids of any disability to enjoy! It's a big project but we know nothing is impossible, everything IS POSSIBLE! It's a dream come true for these families that just want to have fun and create more happy memories in a very uncertain and difficult time. We are honored to help these families and we can only do this through the kindness and support of people willing to help Michigan Children who are fighting for a "normal" life.     

 
 

We were hoping to invite 7-year-old Bella and her family to Golden Key camp but sadly Bella went to Heaven just a few days before she got to enjoy our camp. We can't let that happen again. Every child in Michigan who has a diagnosis of cancer is invited to come breathe nature, play in fresh air and just be a kid at camp with their family never a cost for these families to visit.  

 
 

We can welcome 100 people or just a small family, whatever we can do to help these families we will!! But we need your support. The saying "it takes a village" has never been truer. Will you please donate any amount to this Guinness World Record Breaking attempt so we can bless families who are fighting childhood cancer right here in our own backyard, Michigan, so, we can bless them with a little more fun together in a very uncertain time.   

 
 

We are doing this to raise awareness of Childhood cancer, and to spread the message of our mission and vision. Our goal for 2024 is to sponsor 300 families and welcome them to Golden Key Camp in 2024.   Any amount you raise or donate from your organization or work, church, club, office, shop etc. is so helpful to raise the sponsorship per family to help grant a child and their family a special camp experience at a place unlike anything they ever experienced!

Thank you for your time, I am Lisa Keck Kujawa the founder and President of Golden Key Charity, I started this nonprofit in 2014 to grant Michigan Wishes for Michigan Kids who are fighting cancer, and can proudly say we have granted dozens of wishes, organized dozens of collections for toys, art & craft collections for hospitals, baskets for families in need, given to thousands of families with sick children over the short time of a few years. 

​

Kids who have a terminal or life threatening illness often miss out on social activity, miss out on so much in life and feel like they don't belong and hard to connect with other kids. 

 

The original goal of Golden Key Charity had been to open a year round camp and park for families to visit a day or a week for a true awesome and unique camp experience & never a cost for the families we welcome! We now are so excited that we bought a 55 acre campground in Beautiful Gladwin, Mi It has bunkhouses, a lodge, a cafeteria, a lake, river frontage, we are installing a 1 mile trail, handicap accessible playgrounds and wildlife is bountiful! This property is incredible and we are so excited to welcome families who need to create special time together and lasting memories in a very difficult time.

 

Here are some ideas we have for contributing ,.. we are sure you will be glad you helped knowing the magnitude of the importance of this camp. Life is short, sadly its very short for some of these children. Lets help make their dreams come true while we can!
