Summer Camps

Summer is coming, and with it,the vacations we look forward to all year long!

But... what is the reality when you live in a protection center? The uncertainty of what your vacations will be like, the fear of staying in the residence without vacations and feeling different from the rest?

This is how our summer camps were born!

Today, Soñar Despierto hastwo large summer camps for teenagers:

Go Further expedition withMadrid Outdoor Education: thanks to this expedition, every year 15 teenagers from different residences in Madrid enjoy a 7-day trekking trip through the Palentina mountains, working on their social, personal, and psychological well-being and developing cross-cutting skills for their inclusion in the world of work.
Salinas Surf Camp, run by the Cofradía del Carmen de Salinas: this camp allows around 30 teenagers each year to travel north and enjoy five days focused on socializing, sports, and bonding with each other and with volunteers.

How it works

The motivational programs are carried out together with companies and/or volunteers who help us to organize workshops, lectures and different motivational sessions for teenagers.

From Soñar Despierto we are totally open to listen to proposals and initiatives that serve as motivation for "our" children and from which they can learn.

These camps are made possible thanks mainlytotheCofradía del Carmen de Salinas and Madrid Outdoor Education,two organizations that work hard throughout the year to raise funds and make the camps a reality.

Undoubtedly, the memories and skills acquired in these camps have a very positive influence on their lives and help them create bonds with other teenagers who are facing the same situation and, above all, with all those volunteers who become family.
