Campership Challenge 2017

Mary and Bridget Edwards

Help Us Sponsor a Cabin at Camp!

Every year since 1988, Children's Cancer Connection has provided a week-long overnight camp for children diagnosed with cancer. They also provide a week of camp for siblings of those kids. These children and their families spend far too much time in hospitals, facing worries that no child should face. Camp Heart Connection gives them a chance to build friendships, support one another, and experience one pure week of "just being a kid!" Best of all, no one ever has to pay to come to camp. Camp Heart Connection is staffed entirely by volunteers and funded by donors like you. At Children's Cancer Connection, we believe in serving the entire family for the entire journey. We work year round to make sure we can provide a magical experience for our campers!

This year will be Mary's 9th year as a volunteer at camp. It also would have been Bridget's 10th week of camp! However, since we are adding a new member to our family this year(!), Bridget is unable to attend an entire week. Instead, we wanted to try something new. To honor our family committment to Camp Heart Connection and to celebrate the 10 years we have been a part of this great organization, we are trying to sponsor an ENTIRE CABIN at camp this summer!

That's where you come in! It takes $3,500 to sponsor a cabin of campers at Camp Heart Connection. This money goes towards food, lodging, arts and crafts materials, special events, and literally everything else that happens at camp during the week.  Please consider making a donation today.  Every little bit helps us send kids to camp!
