This summer, members of the Greater Princeton Branch of AYLUS (GPA) are taking part in a volunteering opportunity for teaching classes at the Rise Summer Camp.
The Rise Summer Camp is a 6 week camp made affordable to everyone, where tuition is based on family income. It helps everyone have a memorable summer experience without having to worry about the financial aspect in less fortunate families.
This week before the camp starts, there was an orientation with all the new as well as returning volunteers, counselors and instructors to get to know everyone and how the camp works. Members met with the camp director Ms. Sanzi, assigned, cleaned up, and organized classrooms.
AYLUS members Sarah Yan, Erick Yan, and George Chen are hosting a chess program for both Group 4 and Group 5 students. Along with teaching the chess class portion, AYLUS members will also work as assistants with other programs and classes.
The very first chess class will be on Tuesday, July 5th, for Group 4.
AYLUS volunteers: Sarah Yan (6/14: flyers & communication, 3 hours; 6/15: class proposal 2 hours). Camp Orientation (6/29, 2 hours): Sarah Yan, Erick Yan, George Chen, Andrew Lee, and more.
