This year in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, Phipps Neighborhoods is offering a virtual Summer Experience for hundreds of elementary and middle school students in the Bronx and Manhattan. Summer camp is critical for hard-working families, offering safe, educational opportunities to the children we serve. Our activities help introduce new ideas, build self-confidence, encourage new friendships, and provide memorable experiences to participants from the safety of their home.
Phipps Neighborhoods 2020 Summer Experience will reduce summer learning loss through structured programming that will enhance and support academic achievement, strengthen 21st century skills like collaboration, communication and critical thinking, and build a foundation for children to become future leaders and global citizens.
For more information about signing up for this program, contact pnsummercamp@phippsny.org.
