Urban Promise Charlotte works with children in low-income communities and runs summer programs built for them. Elementary school students and middle school students can attend their six-week programs to develop academic skills and spirituality.
At their summer programs, campers can develop leadership skills, communication skills, self-confidence, and improve their grades. College interns help run the program and teach kids a variety of skills while also making things fun by singing, acting, and leading daily activities.
The day camp sessions last from 8:15 am to 4 pm. Parents can drop kids off as early as 8:15 am for breakfast. After lunch, children can choose from cooking, art, cooking, dance, drama, fitness, and gardening classes. From 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm, students get involved in fun activities.
Urban Promise Charlotte also runs Fun Friday, which consists of fun field trips to other places!
