Why Los Angeles Mission College?
Hosting a camp on a college campus gives participants the opportunity to experience college life firsthand. Students become familiar with a higher education environment, helping them see college as an achievable and exciting part of their future.
New for 2026
DIY Girls has transitioned our former Elementary and Middle School programs into an expanded Summer STEM Camp, allowing more students to experience hands-on STEM learning on a college campus.

“Something I learned that I did not know before is that technology is more than I used to see.“
“One thing I learned in the summer camp was how to 3D print, more about NASA and the astronauts in space, and succulents.”
