OUR MISSION

To provide a refuge for our inner- city kids and offer them the enjoyment to experience Nature, Camp and Peace in their Life.

  • Poor Health
  • Participation in crime and violence

  • Increased likeliness to stay in school
  • Reduction of violence
  • Reduction of drug use
  • Increased physical activity
