We equip young men with purpose, leadership, and the skills to succeed in school, in life, and in their communities.
Our mission is to support and elevate at-risk youth to counter the rising influence of destructive youth culture, by giving them outlets such as STEM, mentoring, and athletic programs to inspire change and help them be successful today and beyond.
We believe at risk youth deserve access to opportunities that help them rise above destructive cultural influences and reach their full potential.
Many young people are navigating environments filled with negative pressures, limited resources, and a lack of positive role models. Without safe, structured outlets, too many are pulled toward choices that impact their future.
Students who participate in structured after school programs, including STEM and enrichment, are up to 20 percent more likely to attend school regularly and show higher academic engagement than peers who do not participate.
Youth involved in organized sports are up to 40 percent less likely to engage in criminal or delinquent behavior compared to youth who are not involved in athletics.
Participation in STEM programs increases college enrollment and persistence, with students exposed to STEM enrichment being significantly more likely to pursue postsecondary education and high skill careers than students without STEM access

Through hands-on STEM and innovation experiences, The KAMP exposes young men to technology, problem-solving, and creative thinking that open doors to future careers. These opportunities counter negative influences by showing participants what is possible when their talents are developed with purpose. This directly supports our mission by inspiring positive change and long-term success.

Our mentoring program connects young men with consistent, positive role models who guide them in character, decision-making, and emotional growth. Mentors help participants navigate challenges and resist destructive youth culture by offering support, structure, and accountability. This reflects our mission to inspire change and help young men become responsible leaders.

Athletics at The KAMP are used as a tool to teach discipline, teamwork, resilience, and self-control. Through structured sports programming, young men learn how to channel their energy in positive ways while building confidence and respect. This supports our mission by providing healthy outlets that promote personal growth and success beyond the field.

The KAMP provides targeted academic support to help students strengthen core skills, build confidence, and close learning gaps. By meeting students where they are and reinforcing discipline and accountability in learning, we help them succeed in school today. This aligns with our mission to elevate at-risk youth and equip them for lasting academic achievement.

The Kamp is more than just a program—it’s a brotherhood. Whether you’re a parent, mentor, partner, or supporter, you can help build a community through the Kamp that uplifts young men and gives them a path to purpose.
Reduced exposure to negative peer influences through effective kamp programs leads to increased school engagement and attendance. These programs also promote the development of healthy habits and physical well-being, contributing to stronger emotional regulation and resilience. As a result, participants have a greater likelihood of staying on positive academic and life pathways.

One student entered The KAMP struggling academically and lacking confidence in the classroom. Through consistent academic enrichment and mentoring, his grades improved and he developed strong study habits. He now approaches school with confidence and a belief in his ability to succeed.
A reserved student joined The KAMP hesitant to speak up or engage with others. Over time, mentorship and team-based activities helped him find his voice and confidence. He now leads by example, showing responsibility, respect, and quiet strength among his peers.
One participant began the program unsure of his role and direction. Through mentoring, athletics, and leadership opportunities, he learned accountability and how to positively influence others. Today, he confidently takes initiative and serves as a role model for younger students in the program.

The Kamp is more than just a program—it’s a brotherhood. Whether you’re a parent, mentor, partner, or supporter, you can help build a community through the Kamp that uplifts young men and gives them a path to purpose.
