This summer, children and youth who have been recently resettled in Georgia will have a chance to have fun, increase their emotional health and grow in their school skills at LSG's summer camp for refugee children and youth!  This camp will combine traditional summer camp activities with literacy education and therapeutic exercises specifically designed for children who have endured trauma.

We are looking for a few specific types of volunteers to help out.  Volunteer opportunities:

·         A photographer to capture some fun camp memories!
·        Volunteers and interns to work with a cohort of campers as counselors
·         A volunteer nurse to help administer medication as needed and be onsite in the case of allergic reactions or injuries
·         Artists/ Creatives: Can you make interactive art projects, teach drama, or lead fun physical activities?  If so, we would love to partner with you to offer even more engaging opportunities to campers!

If you are interested in volunteering, please email your area of interest and summer availability to jmoore@lsga.org
