Reviews

Unit Leader

June 2019 - August 2019 Port Jervis, NY
“I loved the Project Morry mission. It is a non-profit that goes to under resourced intercity areas and sends children to camp for free. They also have a school year program that meets once a month in each community and helps the campers focus on school and goal setting. They also help them apply to colleges when they get older. They do a lot of social justice work and it was a great way to gain experience working with children. I was also a camper in this program so I knew a lot and was able to help those who were newly hired. I also liked how I could rely on any of my staff members for help and that self care was a priority. ”
