Review for University Camps, Los Angeles, CA, USA
What an amazing organization. It seriously exceeds all camps I've ever been to. UniCamp is rich with tradition, and your camp experience will be like no other. Every single "staff member" is a volunteer and has undergone hundreds of hours of training for a week at camp. Therefore, everyone is highly qualified to deal with various situations that arise. Not only are the counselors there to babysit the kids like at other camps I've seen, but they are actually there to be a counselor and turn the world around one kid at a time. As a counselor, I've seen so many kids grow this week that I didn't expect to happen. In a nutshell, going to UniCamp will be the best week of your life.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
several of the campers that I've seen grow and change in this one week.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Open up more sessions so that more kids and volunteers can partake in this amazing experience.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the opportunity to put aside my life and really just enjoy the nature for a week.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
the best people I've ever met. Caring, fun, empathetic. More kind words could not be said about them.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Open up more weeks of camp and send more kids to camp! It could also help pay for a bigger portion of the subsidized fee that the campers have to pay. It would also help out volunteers who currently fundraise $375 for the campers.
Ways to make it better...
the water didn't get me sick everyday.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
funds. We charge campers such $75 out of the $550 it actually costs us to send a camper to camp. Because of this, it's really hard to do anything special and most things that cost money come out of volunteer pockets.
One thing I'd also say is that...
nothing!
