Give the Gift of Summer: Support Camp Nejeda!
Help us provide life-changing fun, support, and friendship for kids with T1D!
When I was a teen, my best friend with Type 1 Diabetes went to Camp Nejeda every year and I couldn’t go. Now, as a Pediatrician Endocrinologist, I enjoy the magic of camp every year by volunteering as a camp doctor and co-medical director.
Please help me give the gift of camp to children with Type 1 Diabetes. These kids (and I!) wait all year to go back to a place where fun, support and inclusion are priorities. I am honored to help provide diabetes care and a feeling of safety for campers and their parents.
Camp Nejeda is a happy place for so many children and their families. Please join me as I fundraise to allow more children with T1D to experience the Camp Nejeda magic!
