CHAMPS Camp

CHAMPS Camp

A camp for children with congenital heart disease and their siblings, offering a supportive and fun environment.

▌ Editor's read CHAMPS Camp is an overnight camp specifically designed for children aged 8-17 living with congenital heart disease. It is a program of the Mending Little Hearts Fund of the Children's Heart Foundation, a registered charity, and is offered completely free of charge to participants. The camp aims to provide a fun, safe, and supportive environment where children can connect with peers facing similar health challenges. The website mentions activities like swimming, canoeing, arts and crafts, and campfires. While the website loads and provides program details, there is no mention of ACA accreditation or specific staff-to-camper ratios. The camp's social media presence includes an Instagram handle @mendinglittlehearts and a Facebook page 'mendinglittlehearts', which primarily promote the Mending Little Hearts Fund rather than the camp specifically. Google reviews for 'Mending Little Hearts Fund' show a 5.0-star rating from 10 reviews, reflecting positive sentiment towards the parent organization.

Who thrives here Ages 7–17

CHAMPS Camp is built for middle-school campers — an age where leadership tracks, deeper specialization, and identity exploration take over from generalist day-camp formats. specialty programs that thrive at this age publish a clear weekly progression rather than a rotating activity menu, and the staff-to-camper conversation usually matters more than the activity list.
