Would Love to Volunteer

Question:

In Patiently Alice (probably my favorite Alice book), Alice works as a camp counselor in the summer for underprivileged kids.  I was wondering if there are any camps like that in real life.  I live in North Carolina and I’ve been trying to find a camp like that because I would love to volunteer, but I can’t find one.

There surely must be camps like this, sponsored by the social service departments of cities or counties.  Call your library and ask if they have a list of volunteer jobs  at various camps for disadvantaged children.
