Overview

Mission

At Heads Up! Hartford, teens from a variety of geographic, economic, and racial backgrounds collaborate to serve the community during the day and engage with each other during a variety of educational and leisure activities at night. We believe that promoting diversity and inclusion helps us all to grow, learn, and become better contributors to our society.

What it reported doing in 2024

Each summer, we bring together 60 high school student volunteers and 20 adult volunteer counselors from across Connecticut for community service, leadership training, and new friends at our week-long overnight summer camp. Each day, our campers travel to a different nonprofit in the Hartford area to do good for their community. They return to camp for guest speakers, leadership training, and evening activities. Our three-part mission is to serve the community, promote diversity, and develop leaders. The total annual hours of service provided to the community is over 3000 hours.
