Send a Kid to Camp

SUMMER YOUTH DEVELOPMENT ACADEMY 2018
JULY 9 TO AUGUST 3 • CAL STATE DOMINGUEZ HILLS

Giving youth hope for their future, skills to achieve their dreams,
and passion to create change in communities.

Sharefest is committed to helping under-resourced youth overcome their circumstances to achieve more in life than they could ever imagine. Every dollar donated makes a difference in the lives of LA's youth!

“Sharefest has truly opened my eyes to what’s around me -- to the problems, the struggles, to reality. I’m not going to wait for someone to say, ‘Oh, someone should do something about that.’

No. that someone could be me and that someone could be you.”

- Sharefest Student
