Details

Atlanta-based nonprofit, CAMP HBCYouth, an educational summer day camp that is based on the principles and values of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), founded by local entrepreneur Brian Wright of Six Degrees Marketing is hosting a block party this Saturday, May 25, at Brooklyn Tea (329 Nelson St. SW) from 2-6 pm.

There will be food drinks and music all afternoon all to raise money for deserving students ages pre K to 5th grade looking to attend CAMP HBCYouth at both Morehouse College and Tennessee State University starting June 3 - Aug 2nd.

Camp HBCYouth registration is now open and is $200 per child. Providing students and parents with ongoing education and support when school is not in session, in a safe and inclusive environment, the camp features academic enrichment with collaborative projects and small group work, leadership development activities, a summer food program, and recreational activities from arts & crafts, physical fitness and musical programming. In similar fashion to HBCUs, Camp HBCYouth serves a vital function in educating minority youth, while increasing access to an otherwise hard to obtain development resource, within a traditionally underserved community.
