🍕 A huge THANK YOU to Pizza Payaa for their generous donation of pizza boxes to support our summer camp program with Unity Youth!

During the first week of June, our campers will be turning these pizza boxes into creative solar-powered s'mores ovens, combining hands-on learning, teamwork, and plenty of fun. This exciting project gives our youth the opportunity to explore science, sustainability, and creativity in a memorable way.

We are incredibly grateful to Pizza Payaa for their collaboration and for helping make experiences like this possible. Community partnerships like these show what can happen when local businesses and youth organizations work together to create meaningful opportunities for youth to expand not only STEM skills, but also learning and collaboration along the way. 🍕❤️
