Direct beneficiaries per year: Over 100 children with cancer and their families.
Geographic areas served: Kentucky
Programs: Indian Summer Oncology Camp: Our week long camp lets kids with cancer build friendships and focus on the important things in life - arts and crafts, swimming, hiking, and s'mores. Indian Summer Sibling Camp: Brothers and sisters of kids with cancer get the chance to meet peers in the same situation, while enjoying some special fun and attention that's all their own. Family Retreat Weekend: Vacations aren't always an option when your child has cancer, but our weekend retreats give the whole family a chance to relax and return home refreshed. Teen Weekender: Summer can't last forever, so each fall we invite teen campers back to reunite with the friends they made at camp. Quarterly Events: Baseball! Go-karts! Roller skating! Campers and families look forward to reconnecting at fun outings throughout the year. In-hospital Programs: Our meal delivery and camp-in programs bring comfort and smiles to help make the hospital more hospitable.
