About IMPACT Camps
IMPACT Camps provide area high school-aged youth with an affordable, local, week-long community service/urban mission experience.
Students participating in the program spend Monday through Friday from 9 A.M to 4 P.M on a staff-supervised team working on a variety of service projects throughout the Triangle. They will hear from community leaders to learn about the housing crisis, hunger, poverty, environmental justice, and other issues facing the local community. Participants will also receive leadership and team-building training, and engage in reflection activities.
Students should bring their own lunch. Some small snacks will be provided.
Students must be dropped off/picked up or drive themselves to/from each service site. You will receive the list of service sites the week before IMPACT Camp begins.
2025 Weeks available:
If the entire week is completed, students will receive 35 hours of volunteer service that can be used for community service requirements for schools and for award recognition.
Program Eligibility
Rising 9th through 12th grade students.
