Project Title: Camp Jamison 2026: A Summer of Peacebuilding and Leadership for Philadelphia Youth
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Camp Jamison is a Philadelphia-rooted overnight summer camp serving youth ages 8\u201315, many of whom have been directly impacted by community violence, grief, and systemic inequities. Our program brings young people out of the city and into a peaceful, nature-based environment where they can build relationships, experience joy, and develop leadership skills that stay with them long after the summer ends.<\/p>\n
During our 2026 summer program, campers will spend one to two weeks participating in activities such as swimming, boating, arts, group challenges, and daily community circles grounded in restorative practices. These circles are a core part of our model, giving campers a structured space to process emotions, build trust, and practice nonviolent communication.<\/p>\n
What makes Camp Jamison unique is our leadership pipeline. Many of our staff are former campers who return to mentor the next generation, creating a consistent and trusted community for youth who often lack stable support systems.<\/p>\n
Funding from the Hermanowski Family Foundation will directly support camper access and program costs, ensuring that cost is not a barrier for families. Our goal is to serve approximately 150 campers in 2026, with a focus on youth from Philadelphia neighborhoods most impacted by violence.<\/p>\n
This is not just a week at camp. For many of our campers, it is a rare opportunity to feel safe, seen, and hopeful about their future.<\/p>\n
