We recognize that cancer impacts the whole family. In addition to providing a safe space for kids with a cancer journey to "just be kids," we also provide parents with respite and a community of support.
What We Do
We recognize that kids with a cancer diagnosis are just that - KIDS! And just like any other kids, they deserve to experience the hope, joy, and community that is synonymous with childhood. We also aim to provide parents with a community of support and respite from their battle with childhood cancer.
Since 1986, UKANDU has grown from a single summer camp program to a portfolio of programs designed to address the diverse needs of the families we serve. This includes 3 camp programs, 1 youth leadership program, and quarterly events.
