Overview
If your family is seeking a sanctuary of joy, camaraderie, and healing, Camp Sunshine should be right up your alley. Far more than a traditional summer retreat, this haven offers a distinctive blend of fun-infused activities and a supportive community for children grappling with cancer.
The essence of Camp Sunshine is about more than just archery, swimming, or tennis. It's about the laughter that echoes through the air, the sense of belonging that wraps around you like a warm blanket, and the resilience that grows within each child and family. It’s not just a camp, but a year-round program that pours love and support into every child, helping them feel less alone in their battle against cancer.
The Camp Sunshine House, erected in 2003, acts as a comforting gathering spot for families. It's a place to share experiences, find mutual support, and enjoy quality time together. Adjacent to it, the Sally J. Hale Center serves as a hub for both intimate and larger gatherings, providing a space for education, support, and enjoyment.
Just an hour east of Atlanta, Camp Sunshine's programs are held at Camp Twin Lakes-Rutledge. Here, attendees can take part in traditional summer and weekend camps, where fishing and other recreational activities add a dash of adventure to the mix.
In essence, Camp Sunshine is more than just a venue - it's a celebration of life, a beacon of hope, and a home away from home.
