This summer, June - August 2026, Rising Tide Youth Movement is launching the Genius Teen Lab Camp, a Portsmouth teen summer camp and 11 week enrichment and violence prevention program designed to give local teens access to hands-on learning, creative exploration, leadership development, and positive summer experiences.

Many teens have talent, creativity, and potential, but they need access, exposure, and encouragement. Genius Teen Lab Camp is designed to help Portsmouth teens build confidence, explore new interests, and grow through meaningful opportunities in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, creative projects, and educational field trips.

Supporters, businesses, and community partners from Hampton Roads and beyond can help make these experiences possible. Contributions will help fund art and creative projects, hands-on STEM activities, daily meals, and educational field trip exposure for Portsmouth teens. Every donation helps open doors for young people and creates opportunities that can leave a lasting impact.

When people invest in youth, they help strengthen families, neighborhoods, and the future of our communities. This Portsmouth teen summer camp is about more than summer programming, it is about helping teens create, learn, and rise in an environment that supports growth, connection, and possibility.

This summer, you can help make that happen.

Sponsor a Portsmouth teen today through Rising Tide Youth Movement.

Your support can help give Portsmouth teens the exposure, enrichment, and access they need to imagine more and achieve more.
