Camp Hope

What is Camp Hope?

Camp Hope is a place where students can come to have a safe place to learn, have fun, learn life skills or learn a trade. There is nothing for students to do in our valley so some teenagers have the tendency to get into trouble. Our desire is to see a positive change in our community.

We hope to achieve this through things like sports, games, and education. As the camp grows, we will have sports like soccer, baseball, basketball, go karts and even a ninja warrior-style course! We will have places to sleep for overnight camps.

So, whether we have a sports camp, a trade camp, or online after school programs, we want students have a safe place to learn and grow personally.

Community Impact

Camp Hope was created because we care about students.

In Mexico, the law states that students cannot work until they are 18, however 80% of students drop out of school at age 14. They can’t get into high school because of cost and lack of available spots.

Since the law went into place the community has seen a significant rise in gangs and teen pregnancy. Students need a safe place to go hear a positive message about who they are as people. The indigenous people feel like they are forgotten. Like no one cares about them. When you feel that way you behave that way.

We want to change their minds into believing they are people that are special and have gifts and talents to share with other. They have worth by simply being alive. No one is saying this to them. We want to be those people that shout they have worth here until they believe it themselves. They matter!

Plans for the Future

On Nov. 9^th we’ll be holding our last camp of the year. We hope to serve 150 students from the local community.

We have at least 6 camps a year. We also serve the surrounding area by providing our weekly education programs, sports clinics and other things to invest into students year around.
