Summer Success

Helping kids be all that they can be

United Way Summer Success Literacy Camps are designed to help young children enhance their reading skills during the summer months. Focused on preventing the “summer slide,” where students can lose progress in their literacy abilities, these camps create a fun and supportive learning environment. Kids participate in a variety of engaging activities, from one-on-one reading with volunteers to group instruction and exciting excursions to local attractions. With certified teachers leading the way and dedicated volunteers providing extra support, the literacy camps empower students to return to school in the fall with improved reading skills and renewed confidence.
