CAMP SWIFT 2024
Camp Swift is always the highlight of our year! Each year, Swift Youth Foundation holds two lifechanging camp sessions for students from various Title I schools around the valley, transitional housing, and foster homes. These camps have a profound impact on the students, fostering personal growth, and providing them with unique learning experiences. Campers spend the week with teen counselors from high schools throughout the Phoenix area, young adults, and other volunteers. During Camp Swift, campers enjoy many traditional summer camp activities, including hiking, nature walks, canoeing, outdoor sports, arts and crafts, music, and more. Outdoor activities teach the campers about ecosystems, water safety, biomes, and nature science. Other camp programming is STEAM-based, and all activities are incorporated to promote deeper thinking and problem-solving skills. Additionally, Camp Swift activities promote social-emotional development, problem-solving, goal-setting, leadership skills, responsible choices, teamwork, and mentorship.
At Swift Youth Foundation, we believe in the power of relationships. We don't just run summer camps; we form and nourish connections with students throughout the year at Swift Saturday, Swift After School, and Swift Carnival. These relationships, built on trust and support, are the foundation of our camp experience. They help campers and volunteers have more fun at Camp Swift and create memories that will last a lifetime.
