Koinonia is a Greek word that means “fellowship” and “caring community.” For the 150 children ages seven through 21 who have various disabilities and the 200 UT students who spend a week as counselors, Camp Koinonia, in Crossville, Tennessee, is an experience that lasts a lifetime. Administered through the Department of Kinesiology, Recreation, and Sport Studies, the program teaches UT students to meet the needs of children with disabilities by pairing one-on-one with a camper. Gifts from donors help ensure that no child is turned away due to an inability to pay.
