Learning to Give Back During College for Kids

Summer kids’ camps, including College for Kids at OCCC, are in full swing, providing great opportunities for kids and teens. This summer, seventh and eighth grade students are learning the importance of giving as they help raise money for Alex’s Lemonade Stand, the Foundation for Childhood Cancer.

The next “Giving Back” class is set for July 9-13 from 1 to 3 p.m., and will also teach students all aspects of fundraising, planning and promoting an event. On July 12 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., students will run Alex’s Lemonade Stand to raise money for childhood cancer.

The classes and lemonade stands will be held at the OCCC FACE Center. The entire OCCC community is encouraged to stop by, purchase a cool drink and help support the fight against cancer in children.

For more information about the College for Kids service project, “Giving Back”, or how to enroll your children, please contact Bannon Dresel at ext.7205.
