We’ve made it through the first 3 months of 2026 already! March was capped off by our annual Celebration Banquet (taking place in the Spring instead of December for the first time ever). It was a great night. It’s always an honor that folks take time out of their busy schedules to hear some stories, …
The shortest month of the year sure felt like it! Unseasonably warm weather has the kids asking us when Camp Awesome is as well as when we get to start throwing water balloons. They’re ready for summer! Below are pics of the fun from the past month.
And just like that, the first month of 2026 is wrapped up! We started out with beautiful weather that allowed us to get outside and run. We ended with a cold, snow week, but that still didn’t slow down the fun! We spent the month talking about “Being Chill,” and how we can bring conflict …
We made it through one of our most favorite – and hectic – times of the year! Christmas season is always special for Mission 2540. We kicked things off with the Sharing Tree Christmas store, our annual partnership with Hillside Church. 330 families were able to shop for presents for their kids for just $5 …

Kids are back in school and back in the swing of things. That mean’s we’re having big, rowdy crowds full of pent up energy! The kids are missing Caitlin while she’s out for maternity leave, but our team has done a great job filling in and picking up the slack. Enjoy these pictures from the …
First of all, huge congrats to Caitlin and her husband Des on the birth of their son late last month! Caitlin experienced her first summer working with Mission 2540, and wrote this reflection on all she experienced. She’s off for a few more weeks to be with her baby. Our kids are counting down the …
The end of Summer means it’s time to focus on making sure kids have all the supplies they need for school. And we’ve had enough Back-to-School fun to last us for the year! We did our annual backpack and supply handout to our families who signed up for help. We passed out 132 backpacks to …
The last week of July, we took 52 leaders and kids on our annual summer highlight, Camp Awesome, for 3 days of fun at Hidden Falls Ranch. We have 2 big goals with camp each year. #1 – to make memories that last a lifetime. #2 – get our kids out of their home environment …
