Camp Phoenix is a brand that offers a fun-filled and justice-centered program in Oakland, CA. Their mission is to empower teens from low-income backgrounds and reconnect them with nature to become the leaders our community and planet needs. They provide a three-week, overnight summer camp experience that combines the excitement of sleepaway camp with exploratory learning to propel middle school students into the next school year and beyond.

Additionally, throughout the year, Camp Phoenix organizes weekend trips in the Bay Area to expose teens to the wonders of Mother Nature. Founded in 2012, they serve about 90 campers each summer, aiming to bring joy, love, and opportunity to all who join. What sets Camp Phoenix apart is their team, which includes staff members who have backgrounds similar to the campers, providing a deeper level of understanding and support.

Camp Phoenix believes in equitable access to adventure, joy, leadership, nature, and opportunity for middle school students, ensuring that the summer gap is closed and that positive personal growth is achieved
