Camp CARE 5K

The Camp CARE 5K Run/Walk is the biggest fundraising event of the year for Camp CARE. All proceeds go toward providing the opportunity for children with cancer and their siblings to come to camp and enjoy fun activities like swimming, boating, crafts, music, dancing and most importantly...making new friends!

Our Mission:

Camp CARE is committed to providing a camp and other year-round activities for children up to age 16, who have or have had cancer, and their families in the Charlotte area.

Camp CARE (Cancer Ain’t Really the End) provides a week-long summer camp and year-round activities to children who have or have had cancer and their families in the Charlotte area. A child is, first and foremost, a child – not just a cancer patient. We provide support, fun and friendship throughout a family’s journey.

Our summer camp and activities throughout the year are for kids in all stages of the treatment journey: on- or off-treatment, in remission or fighting relapse, no symptoms or side effects and those with physical and mental challenges.
