Camp activities

Campers might learn archery or go swimming, make tie-dye or go on a scavenger hunt. Our campers have a variety of chronic skin conditions, so we tailor support to each camper, finding ways for everyone to participate.

“Camp provided Nina with a safe space and allowed her to thrive. She found her voice and used it to meet so many beautiful souls from all over the world. This camp fostered something inside our daughter that made her feel so confident in her own skin, and we will always be grateful for this priceless gift.”
