Harbor Camp

UNH has been partnering with the Metropolitan Waterfront Alliance (MWA) for Harbor Camp since 2008. Harbor Camp provides a meaningful water-based summer camp experience to hundreds of children in the New York – New Jersey metropolitan area. Currently, six UNH members participate including: CAMBA, Chinese-American Planning Council, Goddard Riverside Community Center, Hudson Guild, Union Settlement Association, and University Settlement Society.

Harbor Camp’s goal is to provide ecological, environmental, maritime, and/or historical education alongside fun and entertainment, and to cultivate stewardship in its participants. It encourages interest in protecting and preserving natural resources and instills a sense of the history of the New York region.

For more information about Harbor Camp, contact Snehal Majithia.
