Historias de Impacto en el verano

Verano del 2026

Nos sentimos muy agradecidos por una temporada de verano tan bonita mientras hacemos la transición a nuestros programas de otoño.

Este verano logramos

Apoyar a 102 jóvenes Ofreciendo actividades de verano durante 10 semanas de campamento a traves de edades de primaria, secundaria y preparatoria.
Con los más pequeños salimos a jugar al aire libre, montar bicicleta, hacer arte, explorar nuevos lugares, aprender más sobre los animales y los hábitats de Oregon.
Los jovenes de secundaria y preparatoria hicieron canotaje, rafting con Sun Country Tours y nadaron en los lagos.
Colaboramos con Bend Park and Recreation District en programas de bicicletas para 40 jóvenes más..
Visitamos el museo, la biblioteca, cuevas, lagos, rios, senderos y bosques, y adaptamos nuestras actividades cuando fue necesario debido al humo.

💬 💬 Lo más significativo del programa de verano

Nuestros pasantes de verano compartieron el significado encontrado en:
Aprender nuevas habilidades, ganar confianza y fortalecer a la comunidad.

"Siendo una persona que le daba miedo el agua, el remar con fuerza en medio del caos, me enseñó que el miedo no se desaparece sino que se domina, y las risas y sonrisas son recuerdos que nunca se olvidaran"..
