Camp Ignite

Camp Ignite belongs to Educate USA. It's a model camp, not just a program: organizations hire us to host Camp Ignite at their site — perfect for community organizations that want to run a camp but don't quite know how. Safe, encouraging and student-driven. Families love it and families trust it. It keeps growing on the east and west side of Detroit, and families will hear more in January.
