What is Rock Camp Winnipeg?
Girls Rock Winnipeg is a volunteer led, non-profit community organization that is launching a six-day summer youth program for youth ages 10-14 at the West End Cultural Centre August 13-18th, 2018. Part of a global movement found throughout North America and Europe, the camp empowers girls, trans, and non-binary youths voices through rock music for healing, growth and change. In the span of just a few days, campers learn an instrument (drums, electric guitar, electric bass, keyboards or vocals), form a band, write and record a song and then showcase their achievements on the main stage in front of their peers, family and friends. Prior music experience is not required, and the camp provides an inclusive, safe, and encouraging environment for campers to amplify their voices, challenge themselves, and most of all – have fun!
Throughout the week we also provide a variety of workshops on topics like positive self-expression, media literacy, and gender issues which help develop leadership opportunities, cultivate a supportive community of peers and mentors, and encourage social change and the development of life skills.
You can play a crucial role in helping make the first camp a success! Every donation counts, and every donation makes a difference. With your help, Winnipeg will have 25 new musicians at the end of the 2018 camp who feel confident and empowered. After all, if they can learn an instrument, write a song, and perform it in front of a crowd in just one week, what can’t they do?
How can my Donation Help?
Up to $50: these gifts go a long way to help us feed and provide supplies for our campers and volunteers during camp week. Learning a new instrument is hungry work!
$50-$150: At this level, you're helping us to provide the most important parts of camp; the instruments, the workshops, and the most exciting part of all...the final showcase!
$150-$300+: You're a superstar and you are giving someone the best gift of all - the chance to go to Rock Camp! There will be 25 campers this summer, and approximately half of the camper spots are being partially or fully subsidized for low income families, at risk youth, new immigrants, and inner city populations.
It's an incredible experience to see how much the campers can accomplish in a week, and every donor will receive an invitation to the final showcase on August 18 so you can see first hand how much your support makes a difference.
