Camp Hope & Camp Sibsational
Camp Hope has been serving kids with cancer for over 40 years. Any child ages 5-17 who have or have had cancer are eligible to attend. Camp Hope also offers a Day Camp for children ages 4-17 for those that may be too young or not feel good enough to attend for the whole week. This camp is held the third week of June at Camp Aldrich near Claflin, Kansas
We also know that cancer affects the entire family, so in 2019 we established Camp SIBsational, a camp for children ages 5-17 that is dedicated to meet the unique needs of the siblings of kids with cancer. This camp is held in late July/early August at Camp Wood, Elmdale, Kansas. Near Emporia, Kansas
KyMel Inc is the non-profit that sponsors both of these camps. It was named after the children of our founder, Donna Brown, who lost their battle to cancer at a young age. Kyle and Melani. Both camps are week long camps and there is no charge to attend either camp!
Our campers become more confident and optimistic. They are able to interact with other children who have been through a similar situation, as a cancer survivor or a sibling of a cancer survivor
