The Pass the Light Fund, formerly the Falling Creek Campership Fund, provides camp scholarships to deserving boys who otherwise couldn’t afford the Falling Creek experience.

It is a donor-advised fund administered through the Community Foundation of Western North Carolina, with scholarship recipients selected by a committee of Falling Creek alumni.

Give the gift of a Falling Creek Boyhood.

The Pass the Light Fund connects generations of Falling Creek boys.

One generation experienced the magic. Another generation can make sure the next boy gets the chance to experience it, too.

Sometimes the most meaningful way to honor what you received is to help someone else receive it.

“The opportunity that Falling Creek presents for boys as they transition into adults and leaders is one that is incredibly valuable. You learn from your failures and your successes and camp allows for smart chances to be taken and thus growth happens. I think having the opportunity to share this opportunity with as many as possible is incredibly important.”

— Charles H. M., alumnus from Savannah, GA
