Because of the wonderful support provided by our donors this past year, the LFS Association has been able to provide three camp sponsorships, potentially earmarked for LFS children, to Special Love’s hallmark program, Camp Fantastic!* Camp Fantastic, located in Front Royal, Virginia, offers children who are within three years of cancer treatment an opportunity for a week’s worth of fun and normalcy! This summer’s camp dates are August 16th – 22nd. Dr. Stephen Chanock, the current director of NCI’s Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, volunteers and serves as the camp’s medical director each summer, along with other volunteer nurses, doctors, and supporting staff from the National Institutes of Health. Watch this video on the camp experience, as presented by Special Love’s CEO David Smith and the campers! (Learn more about Special Love and Camp Fantastic.)
