Feedback From Our Interns:

"I can't think of another organization that would allow me to feel so much purpose while giving me the opportunity to learn so much."

-Sam Halle, Marketing and Communications Intern

 

"I absolutely loved it! I helped with pretty much anything and everything the Camp Team needed. Working together with everyone to make sure that all the details of camp came together was great, and seeing the Little Buddies play a game that I helped organize was so cool! I also met some really amazing people in the process and learned a lot about running a non-profit."

- Kelly Sykes, 2009 summer Camp Team Intern
