UCLA UniCamp provides a leadership and training program for hundreds of UCLA student volunteers who form a close-knit community as they train to be a camp counselor, craft programs, and socialize over the course of the academic year. The program culminates in a week-long summer resident camping program with volunteers serving as counselors for over 1,000 underserved youth. Volunteers gain a sense of service and build lifelong friendships; many continue on to become public servants, teachers, and nonprofit staff.
