Summer Camp
Summer Camp is a place where kids feel safe, known, and encouraged to keep learning all summer long!
At UrbanPromise LA, summer is full of FUN, movement, creativity, and joy. Campers build confidence, friendships, and lasting memories that keep them coming back year after year. High school StreetLeaders walk alongside them each day as the role models and camp counselors, creating a summer that feels as supportive as is it fun!
Social Connection & Mentorship
Campers build friendships and are cared for daily by trained teenage StreetLeaders who guide, encourage, and supervise them throughout the program.
StoryLab
Hands-on literacy activities, a competitive summer reading challenge, and personalized book recommendations motivate campers to grow in their reading, finish books and avoid the summer slide.
Hands-On STEM Learning
Campers get to conduct science experiments, play math games, and utilize creative problem-solving through active, engaging, real-world learning.
Imaginative Bible Experiences
Think Vacation Bible School on steroids. Campers step into Bible stories through imagination, movement, and sensory experiences that make faith in Jesus come alive.

Youth Employment
UrbanPromise Los Angeles hires and trains local high school students as StreetLeaders and college interns to work full-time at summer camp. These young leaders care for campers, lead activities, and serve as trusted role models throughout the day while receiving mentorship, leadership training, and faith-based support.
By sponsoring a StreetLeader, donors help raise summer wages and invest directly in the growth of a teenager who is showing up daily for children in our community.
