Peace Camp

Nawal Rajeh Peace Camp

The Nawal Rajeh Peace Camp was founded in Baltimore City in 2007. It was founded by Ralph Moore and Nawal Rajeh. Moore named the camp after Rajeh in 2010. The Peace Camp operates each summer in Baltimore City and has served an upward of 600 families to date.

Now operating out of two community centers, our program served over 110 children in a free-of-cost summer camp focused on peace education and conflict resolution skill-building!

Using many mediums and learning tools, our campers were able to showcase their original projects and artwork to parents and the community at the culmination of camp. Check out our Soundcloud and YouTube Channel to see and hear the original projects our youth had created!

We were also proud to employ up to 14 high school students last summer – all who have previously been campers with us! This is crucial, as the ultimate goal of the Peace Camp is to empower these young members of the community to take up the mantle of peacebuilding on their own, thus turning the effort into a self-sustaining one.
