Summer Camp
We can’t wait to see you all back at camp in 2025!
At this time, we ask that families sign up for no more than 2 sessions since space is limited.
Every child is welcome at Camp Until a Cure regardless of ability to pay. Financial Aid and Camperships are availble. See more information below.
Every year, hundreds of children and teens with diabetes from across Indiana and beyond come together at Camp Until A Cure for a month full of fun and adventure. At camp, they enjoy swimming, hiking, arts & crafts, creek walks, ropes courses, and campfires, all while forming lasting friendships with others who understand their journey. With a dedicated medical team on site, kids can focus on having fun while knowing their health is in good hands
This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
