This list is not exhaustive but covers the biggest and most important things. Please think about your personal preferences for your daily experience and pack accordingly.
Please also review each item to make sure you don’t miss anything as it’s all important!
All clothing should be appropriate, including bathing suits, pajamas, and work wear.
Avoid sleeveless/belly shirts, short shorts, saggy pants, anything with offensive language, art, themes, or content on them, etc.
Especially on worksites, modest well-fitting clothing is a necessity, as improperly fitted or unnecessarily exposed clothing can lead to injuries/inability to work effectively (sunburn).
Bathing suits will be primarily used during showers and should be modest and well fitting.
Students should also bring a second set of clothes for each day to change into and wear after-workdays/showers. This is where sandals, crocs, slippers are acceptable footwear.
If you selected “work crew” or “no preference” for your site assignment expect to be outside for most of the week and pack clothing, hats, sunscreen, water bottle, etc. accordingly.
Showers are onsite and very basic, so we are providing an eco-friendly 3-in-1 shampoo, conditioner, body wash for all participants. We will also provide a leave-in-conditioner and detangler for those who want to use it.
Bedding preference is up to each participant. Cots or air mattresses are welcome, but participants should limit their size to twin or smaller, as space constraints will be present.
Students are welcome to bring their own snacks/drinks. Otherwise, all meals, activities, and necessities will be provided for and covered.
