Through our summer program we hope to offer 50 children the opportunity to realize their dream, in our simulated mini version of the real world. From job interviews, to writing resumes, to making presentations, to having their business funded, and hiring employees all during our full summer program. Children are mentored through the melee of what we working parents do every day. Program participants receive funny money as they make a living, they learn how to live on a budget and pay bills and make decisions just like their parents but in a simulated version of our world. Children are also taught stock investing and positive solutions in dealing with bullies.
This summer, we will have the pleasure of hosting 50 children ages 5-15 for our 2-week Stand-up Against Violence Everyone (S.A.V.E.) Columbia’s Children’s summer camp program. During this summer experience, each child will have an opportunity to realize their dream and engage in educational curriculum (English/Math), Self Defense, How to deal with Bullies, Dance, Fitness and an opportunity to build lasting friendships; all while having fun. Our goal is to deliver a high quality program at a cost that keeps each family’s financial burdens at a minimum.
