Your gift will make Camp Kindle even more magical & accessible for kids
Kids Cancer Care has embarked on a construction project to enhance outdoor and indoor programming space for children at Camp Kindle. The project is part of our vision to provide the best care for children with cancer by reconnecting them with their childhoods. It will also include accessible landscaping enhancements and responsive and flexible staff housing for the hardworking team that cares for our kids and Camp Kindle. Please take a minute to review the elements of the project and choose the one you’d like to support with a donation. If you’d like to support the whole project, please choose Greatest need. Greatest impact. Thank you for helping children affected by cancer survive and thrive, body, mind and spirit.
Greatest Need. Greatest Impact.
If you’re unsure which structure to support, you can support the entire project, giving us the flexibility to direct your donation to the area of greatest need for the greatest impact.
