Part 3 - Line 4a

SUMMER CAMPS: DUE TO COVID19 RESTRICTIONS AND THE HEALTHY & SAFETY OF OUR CAMPERS, OUR ANNUAL SUMMER CAMPS WERE HELD VIRTUALLY IN 2021. WE HAD 156 CHILDREN WITH CANCER AND SIBLINGS ATTEND ONE OF TWO, WEEK LONG VIRTUAL CAMP SESSIONS. SESSIONS INCLUDED DAILY SONGS, GAMES, CRAFTS, BAKING, SCAVENGER HUNTS, CABIN CHATS, ANNUAL TALENT SHOW, DANCE, AND MORE. IN ADDITION TO THE WEEKLONG CAMP SESSIONS, EACH CHILD WAS PROVIDED A "CAMP-IN-A-BOX" WITH SUPPLIES FOR THE CAMP WEEK, GAMES & ACTIVITIES, CAMP TSHIRT, AND GIFT CARDS FOR MEALS AND ENTERTAINMENT. GOALS OF OUR SUMMER CAMP PROGRAMS REMAINED THE SAME: BUILD MEANINGFUL FRIENDSHIPS WITH OTHERS WHO UNDERSTAND THEIR CHILDHOOD CANCER JOURNEY, PROVIDE SAFE, HEALTHY RECREATIONAL COPING SKILLS, AND BUILD SELF-ESTEEM AND SELF-RELIANCE.


FAMILY RETREAT: DUE TO COVID19 RESTRICTIONS AND THE HEALTH & SAFETY OF OUR CAMPERS AND THEIR FAMILIES, THE ANNUAL FAMILY RETREAT WAS HELD VIRTUALLY IN 2021. 243 INDIVIDUALS, ALL FAMILY MEMBERS AFFECTED BY CHILDHOOD CANCER, PARTICIPATED IN OUR 2021 THREE-DAY VIRTUAL FAMILY RETREAT. SESSIONS INCLUDED A CAMP FIRE, CRAFTS, FAMILY GAMES, SPECIAL SESSIONS FOR PARENTS, AND MORE. EACH FAMILY RECEIVED SUPPLY BOXES DELIVERED TO THEIR HOMES, WHICH INCLUDED ALL THE SUPPLIES THEY NEEDED FOR THE WEEKEND, ADDITIONAL FAMILY ACTIVITIES AND GIFT CARDS FOR MEALS AND ENTERTAINMENT. GOALS OF OUR FAMILY RETREAT WERE TO BUILD MEANINGFUL FRIENDSHIPS WITH OTHERS WHO UNDERSTAND THE CHILDHOOD JOURNEY, PROVIDE SAFE, HEALTHY RECREATIONAL COPING SKILLS, AND PROVIDE OPPORTUNITY FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER FAMILIES TO ENJOY QUALITY TIME TOGETHER AND CREATE MEMORIAL EXPERIENCES.


BEREAVEMENT ASSISTANCE: LOSING A CHILD TO CANCER IS ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT THINGS A FAMILY CAN EXPERIENCE. THE BEREAVEMENT FUND ALLOWS US TO SUPPORT FAMILIES WITHIN OUR PROGRAMS, AND HONOR A CHILD WHO HAS PASSED AWAY. WE HOPE THIS PROVIDES A SMALL AMOUNT OF COMFORT TO THE FAMILIES AS THEY PLAN SERVICES FOR THEIR LOVED ONE. OBJECTIVES OF THE BEREAVEMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM ARE: HONOR A CHILD WHO HAS PASSED AWAY FROM CANCER AND PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO EASE THE BURDEN DURING A DIFFICULT TIME. WE ASSISTED 18 FAMILIES WITH BEREAVEMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2021.
