For more than 100 years, IPC has operated the Children's Fresh Air Farm to promote hope and opportunity through partnerships with children, families, and the community by offering quality programming rooted in the love of Christ. The Summer Learning Program (SLP) for youth and children from Birmingham's Hayes K-8 is one of the ways that we continue this mission. Instead of losing several months of academic learning every summer, children from our STAIR program are making gains in reading and math during the six-week camp, as well as participating in afternoons filled with art, music, drama, science, Bible study, worship, and swimming.

As the start of the Summer Learning Program quickly approaches, we hope that you will consider using your time and gifts to help IPC's mission on the mountain! We want to continue providing a plethora of opportunities for campers to learn, grow, and play during their time at the Farm.
