Don't leave your path to chance—choose it!
Tools for Life creates a space and place for you to breathe, connect, and think big about your path beyond high school.
- A clearer sense of who you are—and the freedom that comes from walking with the Lord
- Life skills for success with college, careers, and relationships
- Connections to mentors, professionals, and peers—for life
Explore and discover.
What matters most is knowing you have choices—and we’re here to help you build the life skills to make them.
Bring a friend. Or a few. And build your tools for life—together.
Past destinations and activities have included:
- College Tours (such as UPenn, Rutgers, Haverford, Temple)
- Career Visits (from The New York Times to world-renowned hospitals)
- Workshops (on building relationships, financial choices, networking, and decision-making)
- Community Service (planting a farm at Trenton soup kitchen, Philabundance, Farmer's Against Hunger and so much more)
- Day-in-the-Life (preview of college “dorm life” and making the most of it)
- Fun & Friendship (“Dinner Date Night,” off-campus adventures, recreational outings)
Parents, this is more than a summer camp.
We offer an opportunity for more clarity, confidence, and character-building and the kind of experience that pays dividends for years to come. Your teenager can return with direction, purpose, and lifelong friends.
