Our Youth Can Make a Difference
The best place to start is the community they live in.
Serving the community helps shape our youth through meaningful experiences. This week long day camp offers middle and high school students (6th through 12th grade) a structured opportunity to learn about needs in the community and participate in daily 2-3 hour service activity to help those in need.
