Summer Site

Compared to the emphasis on academic tutoring during the school year, the summer program incorporates a much looser structure and takes on the structure of a day camp. The kids and volunteers engage in physical activities and sports, a lesson of the week and an activity to complement the lesson; this includes themes such as performing arts (create-your-own-skit), College week, and monsters and genetics!

The purpose of the summer program is to have a consistent presence in the community and the lives of the kids that we serve throughout the entire year. The students, volunteers, and directors gain the opportunity to strengthen existing friendships and create new ones. From water balloon tosses, to reading Harry Potter in British accents, summer site allows us to successfully meet our summer goal of keeping our students both mentally and physically active!

Summer of Service

UCLA's Volunteer Center reached out to Bruin's who served this summer and asked them to write about their experiences. One of our returning volunteers, who also participated in our first ever summer program, Melissa Christiansen, was one of those people!
