Should a child stop living when they are diagnosed with a critical illness?

Of course not! Their hopes, anticipation, joys and sorrows continue to explode inside of them. They still crave laughter and are thrilled to see you walk into their room with a warm smile, a hug and even a funny story. Why should they stop living just because they are experiencing a little set back?

CMYF helps coordinate the Landon Pediatric Foundation Kids Camp. Kids Camp is an interactive program of exercise and education that teaches the child the difference between being sick and being out of shape. Too many children today are told not to be active because of some chronic illness. Just the opposite is true, exercise and proper medical care can keep these kids out of the emergency rooms by improving their physical performance.

We take our camp to hospitals, care centers and even outings by special arrangement with their care providers.

Kids Camp! You gotta love it!
