Camps for Children with Thalassemia

CAF periodically shares information about camps for children with serious medical conditions including thalassemia. This is provided for informational purposes so that parents/patients can know about possible options they may wish to consider. CAF does not endorse one camp over another. We recommend visiting the camp websites for more detailed information about the camp sessions, planned activities, dates, amenities, and for application instructions.
