Severely Underpaid

I was let go from Camp for something I didn’t do as I have already stated.
However I have also been severely underpaid from camp for the days I did work.
One of my fellow international counsellors on an 11 week contract is getting paid $1500 dollars, which he told me himself.
Also through the organisation I applied through it states that for my age its $1000 dollars for 9 weeks and at least $30 a day for each day worked after that. So I will go with the $1,000 plus $30 dollars a day since that is the minimum.
My contract was 31 May 2013 - 18 August 2013
The end of the 9 week period being August 1 2013, add on the 17 days extra until 18 August 2013.
31 May 2013 - 1 August 2013 = $1,000
2 August 2013 - 18 August 2013 = $30*17 = $510
So in total I am owed $1,510 for the contracted dates
I got paid $452 for 50 days work, also it would have been $793 however $341 dollars that Camp Birchwood were suppose to pay CCUSA (organisation I applied through) I then became liable for due to Camp Birchwood letting me go. Making my wage $452.
My contracted dates of 31 May 2013 - 18 August 2013 is 80 days
$1510/80 Days = $18.875 Per Day
$18,875*50 Days = $943.75 minus the $341 fee that went to CCUSA = £602.75
$602.75 - $452 = $150.75
So I have at least been under paid by $150.75 if you take CCUSA and Camp Birchwood for Boys reasoning for how I got paid. But when I get my name cleared I will be looking to claim my full wage, A in total I have been underpaid $1,068
