ABOUT CHANGE SUMMER

Change Summer is on a mission to provide students from under-resourced communities with fantastic, two-week overnight and day camp experiences that increase their confidence, curiosity, independence, and responsibility. Change Summer partners with top-performing charter schools to deliver customized summer programs designed to help campers strengthen these core character strengths and prepare for long-term success.

Through five camps—AF Camp, Camp Canopy, Camp KIPP DC, Camp Ironwood, and Camp Uncommon—Change Summer currently serves nearly 3,000 elementary and middle school students. Programs operate across Maine, Missouri, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C., empowering young people with the skills they need for a successful future.

We hope you will join us to learn more about our work and how we are expanding our impact.
