CAMP TO CARE SIMULATION

February 23, 2015

In an effort to see PRYSE achieve its full potential in helping as many students as possilble, it was decided that more college students and community members need to be aware of the large refugee community in Pittsburgh. It is with that that the Camp to Care Simulation was created. The Camp to Care Simulation will bring about 400 college students to the Univeristy of Pittsburgh to take a journey through a day in a refugee camp. Various hands-on stations such as food rations, shelters, health examinations, cultural immersion, and more will allow students to understand the hardships that refugees face on a daily basis.

The people that we strive to help need the time and energy that college students can offer and the event will help to raise the awareness and empathy for refugees throughout Pittsburgh, as well as, present numerous opportunities for volunteering with the refugee population of Pittsburgh, not the least of which is through the PRYSE Academy.

In addition to our crowdfunding campaing, we are hoping to raise additional money at the Camp to Care event for PRYSE Academy.  We hope that you are able to join us for this unique event!

Please visit our website, CampToCare.com, for more information and to register for the event.
