Morgan’s Wonderland Camp

San Antonio, Texas

 

The National Pancreas Foundation and Rebecca’s Wish created Camp Hope, a pediatric pancreatitis summer camp for children and young people suffering from pancreatitis, or post-TPIAT. At Camp Hope, campers can experience all the joys of camp without limitations. It is also a place where they can meet to bond/build friendships in a fun and safe setting that includes camp activities such as swimming, archery, horseback riding, zip-lining, crafts, indoor basketball, photography, color war, campfires, and more!

At Camp Hope, campers can participate in things they have never been able to do while having fun, finding respite, and experiencing a new sense of belonging. All while staying safe under the guidance and care of an onsite medical and psychosocial team.

Our third in-person Camp Hope event will be held June 10-June 14, 2024, at Morgan’s Wonderland Camp in San Antonio, Texas! This is for campers who are 8 – 18 years old. Camp is free for campers and volunteers (19+ years old, will need to arrive on June 9th for mandatory training). Travel stipends are available for those who need financial assistance.

From participants:
 
I love Camp Hope because I got to meet other people like me and I was able to have fun and be a kid.

Camp Hope was a way for me to connect with kids my age that have experience similar medical things and truly understand. It is a very healing camp for past medical trauma.
