Camp Boggy Creek is a permanent, year-round facility where children ages 7 through16 with chronic or life-threatening illnesses and their families can come to Camp at no charge to them. Camp Boggy Creek provides a safe and exciting camp experience for children from throughout Florida suffering from:
Arthritis / Rheumatic
Immune Deficiency
Asthma (severe)
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Cancer
Kidney
Craniofacial
Sickle Cell
Diabetes
(family retreat weekend only)
Spina Bifida
Epilepsy
Transplants
Heart
Ventilator Assisted Care (family retreat weekend only)
Hemophilia / Bleeding disorders
Because there is no charge to come to any of the programs at Camp Boggy Creek, the cost of staffing and operating the camp is covered by contributions from individuals, corporations, foundations and healthcare partnerships. We also rely on over 1,800 volunteers each year to fulfill our mission to serve these brave children and their families.
Transportation to and from the camp is usually the family or guardian’s responsibility; however, many local health organizations will help with the cost and coordination of travel plans, and other special arrangements can be made.
