City Year for Kids is a fun, and educational week-long vacation camp that City Year Boston runs during the winter and spring school vacations. We provide a safe, engaging place for children to go who may not otherwise have adult supervision when school is out. The camps are located at four sites throughout Boston, serving roughly 700 children. During the camps, pairs of corps members and volunteers lead teams of 10-12 elementary school children.

This year’s winter program, runs from Monday February 15th through Friday February 19th, and would be an excellent volunteer opportunity for your organization. Volunteers are welcome to volunteer for just one day or all four. Volunteers will also be required to attend one training prior to the camp.

A first-rate education, includes civic responsibility as well as academic preparation.... With the right programs in place, our schools can provide a wonderful opportunity for students to come together and learn the skills that will keep our democracy strong."

-Arne Duncan, U.S. Secretary of Education
