Mission, Vision, & Values
What is Care Camps Foundation?
Supporting Camps.
Changing Childhoods.
In partnership with the Children’s Oncology Camping Association (COCA), we provide reliable, unrestricted funding to a network of safe, accessible, medically supervised experiences where kids get to be kids and families find community.
Mission
Care Camps Foundation is on a mission to help children with cancer experience joy, belonging, and the healing power of the outdoors at no cost to their families.
Vision
We envision a world where every child with cancer can experience the joy, belonging, and healing power of camp.
Promise
No matter the camp or community, our commitment is the same: to provide reliable, unrestricted funding that helps keep pediatric oncology camps safe and accessible.
Through trusted partnerships and transparent stewardship, we help ensure camps can plan with confidence and children and families can count on medically supervised camp experiences year after year.
