A Message From Jennifer "Lava" Chacon "Woodsey"
Hello everyone!
This summer I will be volunteering as a UCLA UniCamp counselor.
UniCamp is the official charity of students of UCLA and has been around for over 85 years, since 1934. We train and serve as camp counselors to underserved youth in the LA area. The kids go to Camp River Glen in the San Bernardino Mountains for a week in the summer.
We give children from underserved communities a week of summer camp focusing on leadership, teamwork, and college. Each volunteer fundraises $250 to support their cost of going to camp. Although, this is my first year being a part of UniCamp, due to programs like these I was also able to have a great summer as a child.
Any amount you are willing to donate can really help make the best summer for them.
In Support of UCLA UniCamp
UCLA UniCamp is the official student charity of the University of California, Los Angeles. UniCamp operates as an independently funded non-profit organization linking the University with the community. Each year, UniCamp inspires nearly 1,000 children from underserved families to envision brighter futures by sending them, along with 400 student volunteers, to its residential outdoor summer camp.
