On August 13th -- 17th, 2012, the Source Savanna-la-Mar hosted it's first ever youth camp for 30+ youth ages 14 -- 20.
The theme of the camp was "Go for the Gold" to follow Jamaica's amazing success at the summer Olympics. The focus was to ask youth to think about their futures, goals, and what they would need in order to achieve them. The camp featured several guest speakers, basic computer classes, life skill building activities, health and wellness education, dance lessons, and goal setting activities.
The Source is a social enterprise franchise set up by Jamaica National Building Society (JNBS) Foundation and other stakeholders to increase access to technological and socio-economic services to underserved communities in Jamaica. There are five 'Source Centres' to date, with the largest one set to be officially opened in Savanna-la-mar, Westmoreland in the next few days.
