Every child living in their original design

At Original Design, we want to reveal the love of God to children through our mentorship program and giveback events. Because of generous donors and volunteers, we are able to offer opportunities for children to receive the encouragement, life skills, and fun they need to live healthy, empowered lives.

Original Design provides resources, opportunities, and supportive relationships necessary for children to live healthy and empowered lives.

Thank you to our business sponsors!

Our Values

Faith.

We believe that Jesus is the only person who can give us the value that we are desperately looking for. We will provide an environment where the campers, mentors, and staff can live in the Original Design that they were created for; full of righteousness, peace, and joy.

Health.

We believe every child must be healthy before they can thrive. As a result, we place high value on physical exercise, nutritional diet, and mental health.

Athletics.

We believe commitment to a sport has the potential to teach a child life-long discipline and passion. That’s why we’ll often use various sports to help instill a healthy work ethic and accountability!

Life Skills.

We believe every child should be empowered with knowledge that will help them succeed for the rest of their lives. That’s why we focus on teaching practical skills and introducing children to role models they can admire.

“Original Design has had such a major impact on the faculty, staff, and students of Cayce Elementary School. We have loved the fact that some of our students have had the opportunity to be mentees at the camps, some of our staff have worked as mentors, and we have been able to host some of the camps on our campus! I can honestly say that Cayce Elementary School and all of our stakeholders have been truly blessed by our partnership with Original Design!

What People Are Saying

“In a short time, my camper and I have become so close while getting to not only play games and have fun together, but also have genuine  one on one conversations about her life and how best to handle school difficulties she is facing. I was able to take my camper to Frankie's fun park to celebrate her birthday with games and go cart rides. It was the best day together and brought us so much closer not only as mentor and camper but also as friends. I am thankful for the opportunity Original Design has given me to be a part of Emily’s life!”
- Mallory Haley, Original Design Mentor
“I’ve never seen so many people passionate about children. They have had such a positive impact on my child, and I can feel it’s genuine. Passion is the biggest word I can think of with Original Design.”

— Parent of a 2021 Original Design Camper

“I am a proud donor of Original Design because of the great work Jay and his team do in our community. In a world where self-worth is coupled with status, money, and accolades, Original Design reminds the children of our community that they were created in the image of God. Original Design reminds all children, no matter their background, that they are loved and that they are worthy. I give to Original Design because the current children of our community are our future leaders.”
- Chris Paschal, Original Design Donor
