Monetary Donations

The best way to help secure Putnam Camp's future is to help fund our urgent projects with a financial contribution to the Knights and Dames fund. Last year we received $41,000. Ideally, we need $50,000 for the urgent projects we have yet to complete. These include: fixing electrical systems, doing important plumbing and sill work throughout Camp, rebuilding the Coop roof and rebuilding the Nursery.

 

Contribute Small

Any amount helps. If you can only contribute something small, we urge you to start the practice of participating in this annual lifeline for preserving Putnam Camp. $5 buys us a box of nails, a kitchen utensil, or a set of seeds for the garden. $50 buys a cooking pan or enough timber to replace a sill. $100 buys us a set of plates or a stack of shingles. $200 is enough for a mattress; $500 gets us a chainsaw; and $1000 would put us well on our way into one of our larger, urgent projects.
