Helping Little Feet Take Giant Steps.
Camp Wildcat is a nonprofit organization that aims to provide cost-free camps and specialized activities for Tucson, Arizona's underprivileged youth. University of Arizona student volunteers provide children with the opportunity to challenge their personal limits, build interpersonal skills through teamwork, explore creative outlets, enhance their own self image, and view higher education and general success as attainable goals.
For campers, Camp Wildcat is a weekend in the wilderness with a bunch of cool college kids! It is also an opportunity to learn about what college is like and how they can get there themselves. Throughout the weekend campers participate in educational activities designed by University of Arizona students of all majors. Volunteers help their campers to develop artistic outlets, become aware of new talents, acquire confidence, develop future goals and design methods of reaching them.
Since it’s founding in 1965, Camp Wildcat has been an entirely student-run organization with more than 200 student volunteers a year.
