Mission Statement
We envision a world in which all children have enriching experiences that propel their learning and encourage their leadership. Camp Phoenix is closing the achievement gap by accelerating learning during critical periods in low-income communities. The lynchpin of our program is a three-week summer immersion program that empowers students to excel in the rigors of middle school and develop critical 21st century skills through joyful academic learning, enrichment, and community building.
About This Cause
Located in beautiful San Gregorio, just off Hwy 1, Camp Phoenix serves low-income students from Oakland. During the three-week overnight summer camp, campers spend every morning engaging in math and literacy among the redwood trees. Afternoons and evenings are spent doing outdoor education-oriented field trips and activities focused on developing self-identify, and building community and leadership. Our program enables students to thrive throughout their education and beyond by ensuring they (1) are academically prepared for the rigors of middle and high school (2) have a defining experience that drives their passions and daily decisions and (3) develop and foster critical hope for their own futures and community.
