About Camp Rising Sun

Campers get to participate in activities such as swimming, archery, sailing, and crafts. With the help of our wonderful volunteers, we offer a chance for kids to just be kids. At Camp Rising Sun, we give kids aged 5-17 who have faced a cancer diagnosis the chance to be themselves and have some fun. Our camp is held at Camp Jewell YMCA in Colebrook, Connecticut – a beautiful campground set in the hills. We provide heated cabins for campers to stay in with other children of the same age, and a dedicated staff to help them. Thanks to our generous sponsors, camp attendance is free. Campers can take part in all sorts of activities, from swimming and archery to sailing and crafts. Our volunteers make sure that the children have a great time and can just be kids. We strive to give children affected by cancer a chance to relax and make friends.
