Pearce Williams is currently trying to bring our World Camp vision to life with help from the Aviva Community Fund.
What is World Camp?
For years I have been searching for “The Future of Summer Camp”. This idea that our summer camp culture in Canada and world wide needs to adjust and adapt to continue to play an intergral role in the development of children and youth in society.
After our Board of Director’s worked through our vision over the past few years – World Camp is one of our three vision areas – (World Camp, Farm Camp & Environmental Change).
The idea of world camp is based on the concept of the Global Village that Heifer International runs in the USA. We want to teach participants about poverty and cultural awareness – take children, youth and adults from across Canada and give them a hands on experience that will help them understand our place in the world and how we can effect change at home in our own communities.
We would love to see this program come to life – you can help us by voting every day and getting two of your friends to vote everyday during this round of the competition Please help us.
More tomorrow.
