Kids from Austin’s low-income communities don’t always get the chance to just be kids.
86% of homes throughout East Austin are classified as low- or moderate-income. In many cases, teens must take on jobs and adult responsibilities to help make ends meet.
Camp Nikos in Austin provides a place for kids to just be kids.
They can engage in fun activities like canoeing, ziplining, crafting, and swimming while enriching their relationship with God and each other.
Research shows afterschool enrichment with clubs and camps can help kids improve their grades while reducing their risk of following dangerous paths.
Children and teens from Austin’s under-resourced communities have a safe place at Camp Nikos. We have something for everyone! Our camps focus on building Christ-centered relationships for kids ages 6 to 18.
