At Camp Exposure, we are engaged together to promote our holistic educational model that equips athlete’s with an unmovable foundation to be elite in all aspects of life. We believe our model will create change in millions of lives by exposing athletes to the light God has placed inside of them allowing them to see that their purpose goes far beyond the arena. In turn this will empower our athletes to step boldly into their identity, become all God has designed them to be, and lead their peers and communities to become the best versions of themselves, further growing our camp of brothers and sisters. 

What We Believe

At Camp Exposure, we understand the importance of exposing our athletes to essential knowledge, resources, and mentors to help them build a strong foundation for their future, whether they are successful in sports or not. We empower our athletes to discover, develop, and direct their God-given gifts outside of sports into a successful professional career. We strongly believe that everyone, regardless of their background or socioeconomic status, deserves an equal opportunity to succeed in life. By equipping them with the necessary knowledge and skills, we are leveling the playing field and giving them that equal opportunity to achieve personal and professional success.

"Student-athletes spend 23 hours per week on their athletic development, but only a minuscule 0.00043% will make it to the professional level. Athletes from underserved communities may invest even more time in sports, viewing it as their only escape, often neglecting their personal and professional growth beyond the field. There is a need for an organization to empower these young athletes to discover their identity, purpose, and worth beyong sports."
