At Sunrise, we're deeply touched by the stories of hope and happiness that our campers and their families share. One parent beautifully expressed the profound impact Sunrise has had on their lives: 💛 "Sunrise camp and all of the amazing employees and volunteers have been such a blessing to [my daughter] and me in so many ways! From the moment we pulled up, this summer camp has been such a ray of sunshine to our family. [My daughter] goes to bed excited about camp and wakes up ready to go see her friends and all the amazing counselors. What this program and everyone involved has done for my daughter I will forever be grateful for. It truly is such an amazing thing during a still nerve-wracking time for so many families no matter where they are in their child's cancer journey. From the bottom of my heart, Thank you a million times over!!!!" 💛 💛 💛 #sunrisedaycamp #itsthebestcamp #childhoodcancerawarenessmonth #gogold #untiltheresacure

"Sunrise made a huge impact in my kids' life. It allowed them to gain independence, make new friends, learn valuable life skills, and create lifelong memories. Sunrise is like a home to my kids; they love sunrise camp. It helped my oldest build up her self-confidence. It also helped me trust my girls to be independent. I trust leaving my kids in Sunrise's hands. Trying new things is scary, but Sunrise showed my girls that trying new things is not scary. With Sunrise, every day is a new adventure, and they look forward to that every morning. Sunrise is the best summer camp. They are caring, loving, passionate, and everything above." 🌟💛 These words from a Camper Parent beautifully capture the transformative nature of Sunrise Day Camp.

Sunrise Day Camp is where our campers find family who truly understands their journey. 💛 One Sunrise Parent says, “Sunrise has been amazing for both my daughter and her sister as we have navigated this cancer journey. Every single day she goes to camp so happy and literally screams and cries if she is not able to go on days. She comes home singing the songs and cheers and insists that I do so as well. The love and care that Sunrise staff has shown to them has been amazing and has helped to build their bond as sisters. It is wonderful to know that we are not alone on this journey and Sunrise staff is there for us through their ongoing support throughout the year. I am so grateful to be a part of the Sunrise family.” 💛 Tag your camp family and let them know how grateful you are for their love and support! 💛 💛 💛 #sunrisedaycamp #itsthebestcamp #childhoodcancerawarenessmonth #gogold #untiltheresacure
