Program Search Engine - Teen Life
Teenagers with a range of outside-the-classroom experiences (summer, volunteer, stem, test prep, gap year, etc. . .) often do better in school, in the college admissions process, and in their adult lives. Our mission is to help teens and their parents find and participate in meaningful experiential learning opportunities.

Camp Kesam - Since 2000, Camp Kesem has provided a FREE service that has given children affected by a parent’s cancer the opportunity to just be kids. The ever-expanding Kesem community engages in camp activities like sports, arts and crafts, and drama to give campers a fun-filled week. Campers also participate in “Cabin Chats” with fellow campers and counselors, giving children the chance to share their experiences with each other. There are plenty of laughs and lots of emotional support, but Camp Kesem does not provide therapy. The tremendous fun and support campers experience is what makes Camp Kesem a transformative, magical week for campers and counselors alike.

Wolverine Health Explorers Summer Camp (WHE). WHE is a non-residential summer camp for high school students interested in gaining exposure to the health professions while deepening their understanding of their own personal interests, values and skills. WHE is sponsored by the University of Michigan Career Center. Participants will engage in a variety of stimulating, hands-on activities in several schools and colleges on the UM Ann Arbor campus, interacting with faculty and staff, research scientists and graduate students. They will learn about opportunities in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, genetic counseling, nursing, public health, movement science and research. While applications will be accepted until both camp sessions are full, due to the limited number of available slots and the anticipated strong demand, early application is strongly encouraged.

Ann Arbor PTO Thrift Shop is great to do in summer - this is when they need the most help and you can make money towards school events and for the Village Fund. It averages $8 per hour that you can put towards any school related trip or fundraising activity. You can even make a sign-in page for yourself that is "to be announced" - in other words you can save money towards that big Latin club trip, forum trip, or band trip that hasn't even been planned yet! Go in to the shop to sign up for hours any time. It's fun work, in 2 hour shifts, available 7 days a week - and you get a preview of all the cool thrift shop deals. 2280 S. Industrial Highway, 996-9155. Tanya (CHS PTO Thrift shop coordinator)
Other suggestions. Volunteers are sought at the Hands-On Museum, local nursing homes/retirement centers and at the Peace Neighborhood Center. Students volunteer for organizations like the Shelter of Ann Arbor, the St. Andrews Breakfast Program and Food Gatherers. Teaching and child care opportunities exist at churches and synagogues.
Other summer activities? Help out an elderly neighbor with lawn care

The registration fee is used in part to help cover the costs of hosting and insuring foreign volunteers in the US. Likewise foreign volunteers pay a registration fee to their local organizations. VFP then works with its partner organizations and exchanges volunteers like you. Camp costs in all countries are low because housing is simple and often donated and the volunteers prepare their own meals. VFP also strives to keep administrative costs low. http://www.vfp.org/

Girls On Ice
Girls on Ice is a unique, FREE, wilderness science education program for high school girls. Each year two teams of 9 teenage girls and 3 instructors spend 12 days exploring and learning about mountain glaciers and the alpine landscape through scientific field studies with professional glaciologists, ecologists, artists, and mountaineers. One team explores Mount Baker, an ice-covered volcano in the North Cascades of Washington State. The other team sleeps under the midnight sun exploring an Alaskan glacier.
