A private Christian camp in northern New Mexico is looking for volunteers and donations as it prepares for the arrival of immigrant children from the U.S.-Mexico border as federal holding facilities become more crowded, the CBN website reports today (April 3, 2021).
The organization was asked by the White House and the U.S. Health and Human Services Department to house and feed 2,400 unaccompanied children at its property near Santa Fe.
Glorieta Camps executive assistant Josh Nelson said that the organization has been talking with federal officials recently and he was unsure when a contract would be finalized. He added that the camp is prepared to take children, but that it could only do so for 60 days to avoid having to cancel its own summer programs.
