2024 Summer Camps and Teen Mentorships

Now open for application!!

TEEN MENTORSHIP:

Each year, we offer a summer internship program for Teens ages 15-18. This is a full-commitment summer, with a mixture of volunteer hours and work/paid hour opportunities. We take applications throughout the year for this opportunity. Interviews are typically held in March. The final selection is done in April. The internship starts the second week in June and runs through to the week before school starts. These hours both volunteer and paid count for school, we just need the worksheet from the school to complete and submit. This program has been in place since Summer 2020. This is a wonderful and fun opportunity for teens who are interested in doing photography or have an interest in learning how to run a small business. Starting in Summer 2024, all teen interns will be required to volunteer/attend our children’s summer camp to learn and aid alongside the students and also attend a week-long volunteer week learning about the behind-the-scenes and onboarding for the business. The best fits for this opportunity are motivated, kind, patient teens with a willingness to learn and have an open mind.
