Texas Summer Camp 2026

Get Connected Icon The responsibility of all campers is that of all volunteers. Though you may have direct responsibility for one or more campers, every camper participating in a camp or program is under your care. When sending their child to camp, parents expect the staff to act "in loco parentis" and take on the role of a responsible guardian while the child is away from home. "In loco parentis" at camp means that camp volunteers assume the role of a parent while campers are at camp, meaning they have the responsibility to care for and make decisions regarding the children's well-being as if they were their own parents, including ensuring their safety and enforcing camp rules; essentially acting "in the place of a parent" during their stay at camp.

Description

Through fun recreational, intentional, and educational activities at camps held throughout the year, Camp Quality USA brings children together in a non-hospital setting where they find hope, support, and understanding from their peers who understand a cancer diagnosis. Furthermore, we provide these camp opportunities at no cost to families.

Camp Quality USA - Texas Summer Camp 2026 will be held May 30-June 5, 2026 at Camp For All (6301 Rehburg Rd, Burton, TX 77835). Most volunteers will serve as a companion, a volunteer paired with a child battling cancer, acting as a personal friend, mentor, and "buddy" for the duration of the week-long camp. They provide 24/7 support, supervision, and cheerleading to help campers "just be kids," creating a safe and fun environment.

- One-on-One Support: Each companion is matched with a specific camper, ensuring constant supervision and a dedicated friend.

- Role & Responsibilities: They participate in all camp activities, offering emotional support, encouragement, and friendship. They are not medical staff, but help with daily needs and ensure safety.

- Requirements: Volunteers must be at least 18 years old, pass a background check, and attend training to understand the needs of children with cancer.
