Camp Hope - Heartland

Camp Hope is a traditional summer Camp experience for youth who have, or have had, cancer. It has been held yearly since 1983. Unique in its ability to assist campers' needs through a fully functional, on-site medical team, Camp Hope campers are able to enjoy traditional summer Camp activities. It is a time for them to be around peers who have, or have had, similar life altering illnesses and to be in a setting that lets them forget about their diagnosis while they have one of the best weeks of their lives. In recognition of the effect cancer has on the whole family, we offer Camp sibsational - a Camp for siblings of children with cancer. Camp sibsational is the first of its kind in the Heartland, and provides the siblings a fun experience with peers who also understand how they are feeling better than anybody else.
