The UT Foundation recently sent out a publication to alumni that featured seven efforts provided by the university that have made an impact on the world. Camp Koinonia was one of the seven programs detailed in the report. The week-long camp is held in Crossville, TN each spring and allows 200 UT students to connect with 150 children who have various disabilities. Campers have the opportunity to experience sports like canoeing for the first time because of safe, personalized guidance from the students, who have been trained as counselors. Associate Professor Angela Wozencroft serves as the Camp Koinonia program director.
