UrbanTrekkers, a program of UrbanPromise Ministries in Camden, has announced the recent purchase of their Mobile Classroom!
UrbanTrekkers is an outdoor-based mentoring program that connects caring adults with young people through expeditionary learning, community service, cross-cultural opportunities and adventure-based education. Students travel to places outside of Camden, such as the Appalachian Trail and the White House, they wouldn’t otherwise be exposed to.
Until now, UrbanTrekkers didn’t have its own bus to use for transporting students on their various adventures. This meant the program spent an inordinate amount of money on vehicle rentals, and had to limit the number of teens that could go on each trip.
The beautiful new bus will allow UrbanTrekkers to expand its mission to offer outdoor, hands-on, and up-close learning that motivates students and develops life skills.
