Summer is rapidly approaching, and it is time for parents to once again make plans for their children while school is out. If the last year has taught us anything, it’s that kids don’t stop being kids just because of the price of eggs, the economy or family finances. With the end of the school year in sight, parents are faced with the challenge of adding the cost of summer day-care and activities to their already stretched budgets.
Fortunately, there are summer camps who are sensitive to the financial impact that the summer months have on families and are stepping up to help. Performing Arts Workshops, winner of BEST Summer Camp in LA Parent Magazine, is doing just that. They have been offering arts-based after school and summer camp programming for over 30 years. Their long-standing mission of providing quality arts-based classes and camps to children regardless of finances, has been made possible through their 2 scholarship programs and their special family discounts.
Their 1st scholarship program is the MATCHING FUND SCHOLARSHIP. Through a generous donation, 200 scholarships for PAW’s Musical Theater Camp are available on a first-come, first-served basis until they are gone! For the 17th year their donor, a Los Angeles community member and arts advocate, wants to make sure that every child in Los Angeles can have the opportunity to experience a Performing Arts education. She believes that exposure to the arts at a young age is essential for a child’s growth, development, and academic success. She created this fund so that children can use their summers to build on what they learned in the classrooms during the school year in a fun and exciting way! The Matching Fund Scholarship provides half of the tuition for any of PAW’S Musical Theater Camps when the parent matches the remaining $480 for the two-week session. With a limit of one scholarship offered to each child in a family, there are no conditions or prerequisites. To receive an authorized (MFS) scholarship, a parent only needs to call the PAW office at (310) 827-8827 to be placed in the donor book.
Their 2nd scholarship program is the AMBASSADOR SCHOLARSHIP. This scholarship is intended for families wishing to maximize their children’s summer camp options or create summer camp opportunities for children who would otherwise go without them. The PAW Ambassador Scholarship is a service-in-exchange for tuition program. By volunteering just ONE DAY (or a total of 8 hours as your schedule permits) you will receive half off your summer camp tuition and help to further PAW’s arts education mission. Simply by spreading the word to other parents and families about their camps, their scholarships and many discount programs, you will be enabling more children in your community to enjoy the benefits of a rewarding summer camp experience. The Ambassador Scholarship is truly a win-win opportunity. You can even be a repeat ambassador and enjoy half off every session of camp you enroll in, for each 8 hours of service you volunteer. You can learn more about PAW’s Ambassador Scholarship by calling the PAW offices or visit the Ambassador page on their website: https://performingartsworkshops.com/paw-ambassador-scholarships/
Cheryl Appleman, president of Performing Arts Workshops, created these scholarship assistance programs because she feels every child should be afforded the opportunity to experience the arts, and all that the arts have to offer in the way of character building, life skills, and academic enrichment. “I know many of the families we serve and know the hardships they’re going through. When your child is passionate about something and you have to tell them, ‘no’, because of finances, that really hurts. I remember what that’s like. I developed our scholarship and discount programs because I was a scholarship kid, too. My dance teacher took me under her wing and gave me the opportunities and guidance I needed. Her scholarship made it possible, and it changed my life.”
