Camp Rainbow Foundation

Family Camp: family Camp is a place for kids with cancer and their families to have fun and enjoy a Camp experience. Like our other camps, family Camp was created for families dealing with the pediatric diagnosis of a cancer or blood-related disease of their child ages infant - 18 years old. The child must be treated by one of the st. louis children's hospitals. Held each year over labor day weekend at ymca of the ozarks trout lodge, family Camp provides the family with the opportunity to set aside treatments and hospital stays and create special and cherished memories. At family Camp, we provide medical care and treatment through our fully staffed health center.

Sibs Camp: since 2018, we have hosted a magical Camp experience for the super important brothers & sisters (sibs). Sibs campers can experience typical Camp activities, have fun, and make friends. Because cancer affects the whole family, we created this special Camp for children and teens, ages 7 - 17 years old, who have had or are currently dealing with a sibling's diagnosis of cancer or other blood-related disorders. For one week each summer, our sibs campers take over the wyman center located in eureka, mo. Laughter, friendships, and traditional Camp activities make this a magical week for our sibs.
