A Message From Sandra Ngo

Hi everyone! Growing up in Temple City, I was never really exposed to what social justice education meant. All of the schools I went to - and many of the schools in my area - rarely had to worry much about resources or graduation rates. However, upon coming to UCLA, I learned that that's not the case for everyone. That's why I have decided to participate in UCLA UniCamp's session AcademiCamp. However, it cannot happen without your help! UCLA's UniCamp is an amazing program that invites more than 1,000 children, typically from low socioeconomic communities in LA, up to camp. Campers go to unique sessions throughout the whole summer, each with its own objective, such as to support college-readiness, dealing with grief and hardships, promoting a healthy and active lifestyle, etc. My session, AcademiCamp, aims to address the very issue of social justice education. During the summer, we'll be working with students from Horace Mann Middle School in a fun, friendly camp setting with hopes of encouraging and empowering them to be the leaders they are meant to be. However, the price of sending these kids up to camp is not cheap. Each camp volunteer is striving to raise $500 to make camp affordable for these students! Please donate anything that you can! It will go a long way. Thank you very much!
