Camp Sunshine

Supporting children with life threatening illnesses and their families

Nestled alongside the shores of beautiful Sebago Lake, Camp Sunshine provides respite, support, joy, and hope to children with life-threatening illnesses and their immediate families through various stages of a child’s illness. The year-round program is free of charge to all families, and includes 24-hour onsite medical and psychosocial support. Bereavement groups are also offered for families who have lost a child to an illness.

Camp Wonder

Camp Wonder is an incredible camping experience being offered to children with skin disease, ages 6–16, at no cost to the family or child. The week offers the opportunity to participate in exciting activities, form lasting friendships, and ultimately develop a stronger sense of self-esteem, while under the careful and loving supervision of an excellent medical staff and counselors.

Camp Discovery

The American Academy of Dermatology (Academy) is proud to offer four camping sessions this year for young people with skin conditions who are between the ages of 8 and 16.  Under the expert care of dermatologists and nurses, Camp Discovery gives campers the opportunity to spend a week with other young people with similar skin conditions, while participating in activities such as swimming, boating, fishing, arts and crafts and lots of all camp games and activities.  Many of the counselors also have skin conditions and can provide support and advice to the campers.

There is no fee to attend this very special camp.  Full scholarships, including transportation, are provided by the Academy through generous donations from its members, outside organizations and individuals.
