Mission ProgramsCamp Kidzgo:Camp Kidzgo is an international, two-week nickelodeon style camp for children by children! Children are the participants and children are the instructors! We have the adults at camp mainly as chaperones for supervision and discipline. Each youth instructor (8-18) trains for months on international cultures and religions, so as to find the best way to reach those in the country to which they travel.
It offers group as well as one-on-one life skills activities for children. This program is designed to teach children to reach children less fortunate than themselves in countries or neighborhoods less fortunate then theirs. It focuses on "self-improvement", “empowering”, "life lessons” (the spiritual and psychological), and "dynamic sports and fine arts workshops” (physical and emotional).
In addition, we provide the entire community with medicine and a full day medical clinic by an MD. The children invite their family to come see the doctor at no cost to them. On the last day of the camp we host a back-2-school bash & party (or picnic), where each camper gets backpacks and school supplies. In 2004 we provided school supplies for 100 children. In 2005 G-d provided for us, school supplies for 400 children. Look at G-d! We also provided clothes, new shoes, and food for single mothers and the elders.
This is an international program that is hosted mainly in the Caribbean & Europe. Contact info@daretodance.org for more information on how you or your child can get involved next year.
Soul Food 2K6:SOUL FOOD 2K6 is an EXCLUSIVE children & youth fine art, summer camp that focuses mainly on SOUL WINING through fine arts! More importantly it focuses on teaching the importance of WINNING SOULS! Youth & children are taught to reach their schools, parks, boys & girls clubs, YMCA’s, neighborhood for the L-rd. This camp introduces children and youth to practical techniques on “soul winning”. We offer full tuition scholarship to 1/3 of the campers (see below). Many under privileged children and youth are introduced to quality fine arts & sports training, which helps keep them off the streets during the summer.
In addition we offer other scholarships and prizes including a $1,000 scholarship to the camper with the freshest, most radical idea on soul winning. This scholarship is called the “Fresh Thinker Scholarship” Program. This year’s winner is Rachael Williams of Tampa, FL. Rachel lives in the poorest community in Tampa where the average salary is $10,000.00 medium income per household per year! Imagine living on $10,000 per year!
Needless to say there's no money for fine arts and other cultural interest. Today as a result of her scholarship Rachael is currently enrolled in Frank Rey dance studio (www.frankrey.com) as well as ANOC Academy of the Arts (www.anoc.org) where she’s studying Latin dance, ballet, hip-hop & sign language. Another winner is Aaron, who won a 27-inch color TV; while another child won a DVD player! Soul Food 2k6 camp empowers and motivates hundreds of children and youth nationwide, allowing them opportunities to travel within their community and give back by sharing the message of Jesus’ love and mercy and by sharing their gift of the Arts.
We intensely train these young artists, i.e.: dancers, rappers, musician and singers how to share about their L-rd & Savior AND to give back into their community in ways that’s lasting. They give of themselves to help others in need; which brings happiness to many, many lives. Soul Food employs professional artists who love the L-rd, love soul winning and children. Our camp instructors consist of professional musicians, songwriters, poets, percussionists, steppers, stage managers & set designers, dancers (Alvin Ailey trained), gymnasts, photographers, painters, rappers, professional filmmakers, directors and TV producers.
If you’re between the ages of 6 – 18 years old, come hang out with us in sunny Tampa, Florida for SOUL FOOD 2K6 – Summer 2006, and you’ll learn how to make an eternal difference. It will be a LIFE CHANGING event for young people!
