Description
Hoosier Burn Camp is a nonprofit organization committed to providing life-changing experiences for young people from infancy through young adulthood who have suffered the physical and mental trauma associated with a severe burn injury.
Our largest annual event is summer camp, but we also host monthly events throughout the year. Hoosier Burn Camp provides a place for burn survivors to feel safe and supported in an environment where no one is made to feel different because of their physical injuries.
Hoosier Burn Camp programs help burn survivors from infancy through young adulthood build self-esteem and realize their highest potential as they overcome the pain and trauma associated severe burn injury.
We create worry-free environments where young burn survivors can just be one of the kids(tm) while they develop the personal strength to reach their highest potential.
Through the monetary generosity of donors and emotional generosity of volunteers, we are able to provide our character-building experiences at no cost to campers and their families.
