Ministry Partnership Resources

Partnering for What Matters

Sugar Creek exists because churches, individuals, and organizations believe outdoor faith education changes lives. If that's you — there's a place for your partnership here.

Vehicle Donations

Cars, trucks, boats, trailers, kayaks, tractors, UTVs - all are needed! Why sacrifice at a trade in, when you can get full tax deduction benefits at a usually higher value? Bless your ministry at Bible camp in a HUGE way!

Vehicles will be used extensively and/or sold at top “private party” value, to benefit your ministry at Sugar Creek.
