One of Diabetes Canada’s most cherished programs is D-Camps, which allows thousands of kids with type 1 diabetes to connect with other kids with diabetes at summer camps while under expert medical supervision.
The health and safety of everyone involved in this inspiring program is of paramount importance to Diabetes Canada.
Due to the uncertainty of the current COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with the advance planning and training required for us to deliver our exceptional camping program, we made the very difficult decision to put our D-Camps on hold this year. We have offered all camp families a full refund.
The cornerstone of our camping program is the personal interactions between our campers, staff and volunteers. And while the face-to-face experiences is limited for now, we’re already planning some innovative ways to stay connected with our D-Camps community this summer.
Diabetes Canada remains fully committed to offering D-Camps again. We wish all our supporters a safe and healthy summer and look forward to reconvening next year.
