Teens Against AIDS is announcing its annual Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) Youth Camp to be held in Tanzania from July 9 thru 13, 2007. The camp is free to youth that qualify but participants must pay their own round trip transportation to the camp site and back home.

Limited transportation assistance will be provided to members of TAA on a first come, first served basis. Members are those individuals who have paid their annual membership fees of $1, good for a year. There is no registration fee to all participants including non-members.

This year’s OVC camp will be hosted by the Tumaini Secondary school in Bunju-Boko, about fifty miles outside of Dar es Salaam. Campers must make arrangements to arrive in Dar es Salaam a day or two before the camp starts. Free accommodation will be arranged for early arrivals between the 7 and 8th. Selected campers will be provided with details to the campsite.

Registration is open to all vulnerable youth (you don’t have to be an orphan) between the ages of 11 and 25 regardless of your country of citizenship. Registration has already started and is limited to 100 participants. Deadline for accepting applications will be June 20, 2007.
