Youth

Camp Lega­cy is a free one-day grief camp for chil­dren who have been impact­ed by the gift of organ, tis­sue and eye dona­tion. Camp is open to kids ages of 6 – 17 and must have com­plet­ed kinder­garten. We don’t deter­mine who is impor­tant in the lives of your chil­dren, so there are no lim­its on the rela­tion to our campers and their loved one.

Adults

For the impor­tant adults sup­port­ing our campers, we offer time for con­nec­tion, reflec­tion, relax­ation, remem­brance, and com­mu­ni­ty, acknowl­edg­ing your role in sup­port­ing young campers while nav­i­gat­ing your own grief jour­ney. To reg­is­ter as an adult par­tic­i­pant, you must also reg­is­ter a youth camper. Adult par­tic­i­pa­tion is option­al. If you plan to drop off your camper, please stay until they are checked in and reg­is­tered. We invite the impor­tant adults in our campers’ lives to join us for the clos­ing ceremony. 

Camp Lega­cy also offers an adult pro­gram with facil­i­tat­ed grief work, con­nec­tion with oth­er adults who have lost a loved one and are sup­port­ing chil­dren through grief, as well as time for reflec­tion and self-care.
