Camp Life Summer Staff Program - Transforming the lives of Zambian orphans.
What is Summer Staff? Family Legacy's Summer Staff program exists to grow college students in their walk with the Lord, for them to work together as the body of Christ, and to serve the Camp Life participants as they serve the orphaned and vulnerable children of Zambia.
If you are interested in being a part of our summer staff program, please review the important information below.
When does the Summer Staff program take place? Please refer below for 2019 dates. If you are a returning alumni or have a particular week you would like to attend, please take that into consideration when applying for a half. For more information regarding the week's of Camp Life, please visit our website here.
How many people are accepted for Summer Staff? Approximately 20 students each "half," 40 students total.
What if I have never been to Zambia? No worries, we would love to have you! If this is your first time to Zambia, you will be required to participate in a week of Camp Life as a "participant" to gain the full experience.
What is the cost to participate in Summer Staff? $4,500 covers the cost to participate in a week of Camp Life as a "participant," as well as your airfare, lodging, meals, and transportation for the duration of your stay. If you are an alumni and you choose to not participate in a week of Camp Life as a participant, $1,000 will be deducted from your total cost.
What is the application process? All applicants interested in being considered for summer staff must apply online for both a standard Camp Life application, as well as the summer staff application (see below). The reason for filling out both applications is that the Camp Life application provides general traveler information and secures a spot in a week of camp if summer staff acceptance is denied, and the summer staff application is what qualifies you for the summer staff program in particular.
What will the interview process look like? Once your application is reviewed, you will be asked for an interview at one of the dates and locations below, or a FaceTime interview will be scheduled.
What if I have more questions? Please reach out to Rachel Thacher (based in Zambia) or Savannah Stancil (based in Dallas) at summerstaff@familylegacy.com or our office at 972-620-2020 ext. 127.
