Help Charlie and Ruby Attend Interlochen Arts Camp!
Donation protected
Hi, I'm Charlie, and I'm 15. My sister Ruby and I were both accepted to Interlochen Arts Camp for this upcoming summer. We'll attend IAC from June 22-July 12, Ruby in the intermediate (middle school) visual arts program and me in high school filmmaking.
We're looking for jobs in exchange for financial support (like babysitting*, yardwork, etc.), and you can pay us through this go fund me!
We went to Interlochen during the summer of 2023, and it was a life-changing experience for both of us. On top of strengthening our artistic abilities, Interlochen opened up so many new opportunities and allowed us the space to explore being more independent. For me especially, this kind of experience is crucial as I begin to consider my next steps college and career-wise. I intend to pursue screenwriting, and the immersive classes Interlochen offers will give me a solidified understanding of filmmaking concepts, as well as experience in the craft (I'll be writing and shooting an original short film).
The Interlochen Arts Camp experience is unmatched, and Ruby and I hold it at our utmost priority. But we need your help to get there. We've received some merit-based and financial scholarships, but we still have a long way to go.
Please let us know if you have any work or projects we could help with. And of course any donations are appreciated. We thank you so much for any support you're able to give us, and we'll be sure to share with you our pieces from camp so you can see just how significant three weeks at Interlochen is to our artistic development.
*We both took a Red Cross training course for babysitting
