********************************...Social Justice Design Camp
Camp Firebelly is intense, but not actually in tents. We're looking for the most talented + brightest college design students (or recent graduates) to join us for the first-ever Camp Firebelly design charrette: 2 weeks of intensive collaboration with an awesome nonprofit client to address a social justice issue, strategize + design the solution and see it all the way through to print.
Our friends Mike Perry + Delicious Design League will be coming through to lend a hand, as well as a few more secret guests. There'll also be several side missions like field trips and workshops.... Let's make it happen!
The cost of Camp Firebelly includes 10 days of activities, transportation, workshops, supplies, production costs and room + board (a place to sleep + good food to eat). Basically, we're using the money to pay for everyone's food + drinks, renting a big van, paying obscene gas prices, and all the activities we'll do that cost dough. The $1000 is all-inclusive that means everything but your personal purchases. But who needs cheesy souvenirs when you'll be taking home a bunch of sweet commemorative items!? BTW, what's a college credit or student conference cost these days...?

Are the sleeping quarters for the boys and girls separate?

Did you start this camp just so you can say the "intense" / "in tents" joke?
It's OK, you can tell me.

So let me get this right, I'm gonna give you guys $1000 to work intensively for 2 weeks for a non-for-profit client so they can get a
great campaign for free.Call me strange, but I've got better things to spend a grand on.

This is an incredible opportunity to learn firsthand what professional design life is like-Firebelly-style: our process, our methods, our daily grind. Campers will stay in Firebelly's Chicago loft office, sleep in sleeping bags and eat healthy organic/vegetarian grub.
Seriously? I get to stay in a loft apartment. Shit sign me up.
