"O'CAMP 2022"
Operation Youth And Young Adults ("OYAYA") would like to thank all the participants of our summer camping trip. During this camping trip, our youth learned and experienced new things such as pitching tents, building campfires, and chopping wood. The camping trip further afforded learning and growth opportunities through the group mentoring intensives held during the camp. This camping trip got the youth out, away from their phones, and in tune with their environment and peers in a valuable way that was packed with fun. Everyone had a great time!!

OYAYA’s President got a call from a parent today. She told us that she got a call from her son’s school saying she needed to come to the school for a meeting regarding her son. She went to the school with the thought that he had probably gotten in trouble. However, it was just the opposite. The school met with her to tell her that they are not sure what she’s been doing differently, but that her son’s behavior and grades had improved significantly. She told them that her son has been attending our program, and she thanked our president for the work he is doing him.

We love knowing that what we are doing is helping the children in our communities. When this program started, the first topic was eduction. Report cards are out and we are seeing improvements in grades and attitudes toward school.
