A Message From Jennie Valenzo
As a past camper, I understand what it's like to feel lost but found through UniCamp. Being away from the city and into the woods for a week I went from being Jennie to Coachella, by being Coachella I was whoever I wanted to be and got out of my comfort zone. I have grown through UniCamp, last summer I got to see my very own campers grow within our week together; the friendships made through UniCamp last a lifetime. When doing UniCorps, as a camper, I was given the chance to better myself and my counselors were there to support me through it all and to this day. Being a teenager is awkward and UniCamp makes you feel like you're not alone.
