Took 30 Teens Camping in July 2010:

The Objective: To take 50 Bed-Stuy & Crown Heights Community-Bound Teens the Camping Experience For One Week This Summer.


The Description: Many of the teens we work with have very little exposure outside of their “block” and to nature. They are so used to technology, noise, and speed that they tend to not see the value in environment, silence, and appreciating the atmosphere. This trip was from July 5th to 11th 2010 and the community's support it will be free for the attending 50 teens. It was an opportunity for them to gain fund-raising experience before the trip and increase exposure to new environments and responsibilities, physical creativity and positive camaraderie during the trip.
