We send the children of hard-working nurses to summer camp — so their summers are full of friends, sunshine, and memories instead of long days at home.

First day!Why we do this
Nurses work long, exhausting days — often overnight and through holidays. When school lets out, their children can be left home with little to do all summer. Kade's Kampers helps change that.
Kade's Kampers started with a simple truth: nurses spend their days and nights caring for other people, and when summer comes, their own children are often the ones left without a place to go.
We wanted to change that. Every dollar donated sends a nurse's child to a full summer camp session — real days of swimming, sports, art, and new friends, instead of a long summer stuck at home.
It's our way of giving back to the people who take care of everyone else.
Nurses give their days to others — often at the cost of time and money for their own families.
When school ends, many kids are home all summer with nowhere to go.
Your gift sends a child to camp for a full session of friends and fun.

Who we are
Kade's Kampers was founded by a family who wanted to give back to the nurses in their community — and to the kids who wait at home while their parents work to care for everyone else.
We're small, we're hands-on, and every dollar goes straight toward sending a child to camp.
