Check Out What We've Been Up To!

Volunteering for this organization has changed my life in so many wonderful ways. The kids have so much to contend with, and it is incredible to see them have a camp experience where they can just be kids. Watching them grow more confident each day and seeing the joy that radiates from each of them while at camp is an amazing experience. I wish I could say that I have made the bigger impact on them, but I know it's the other way around.

Volunteer

I have CHD and my experience with CBC was nothing short of amazing. I can say with 100% that it has changed my life. It not only helped me meet other kids that go through the same thing, but it gave me confidence as a person. I will forever be grateful for that time and CBC.

This camp changed my life...and I do not even have a heart condition! The staff and campers quickly became close friends when I worked as a camp counselor. Listening to the campers describe their heart conditions first broke my heart but as they spoke I realized they were all so young yet so knowledgeable and positive. These children have a great life ahead of them and I am glad they have camp as an outlet to have stress-free fun!

Former Staff

My son Cooper was born with a cengenital heart defect (CHD) and my family has first-hand experience and knowledge of how great this organization is. CBC has made a profound impact on the lives of so many children born with CHD. They provide an environment for these kids to not only experience life equal to their peers, but to excel in it. CBC, and its entire staff, is truly incredible.

As a former camper and staff member who has been involved with Camp Bon Coer since 2000, I can tell you the place is life-changing. Camp taught me what I was capable of and to have a voice. That I was allowed to say yes I can. To push my boundaries in a safe and loving environment. I can without a doubt tell you that camp has helped shape me into the woman I am today. I even met my husband at camp! He too has a heart defect even though he was never a camper himself.

Volunteer

As the mom of a child born with heart disease, it's always a concern that your child will be excluded because they are different. Camp Bon Coeur is a place where our "heart kids" can feel like "normal kids." My daughter first attended camp when she was 7, and we are planning to return this summer for her second year. The staff is so caring and supportive, and they are all highly trained. Some of the camp nurses are heart patients themselves, and the camaraderie between the staff and campers is awesome. My daughter looks forward to seeing her camp freinds again, and I know that this is a place she will make wonderful lifelong memories.

Camp Bon Coeur made a huge impact on my son's life and it was well worth the 6+ hour drive from Texas. Being surrounded by heart kids of all ages and learning how they dealt with their issues helped give him more confidence, more understanding of his defect, and a true sense of camaraderie with others like him.

The camp staff and volunteers are amazing. They put their heart and soul into making the experience a blessing to all campers. We will always feel connected to Camp Bon Coeur and the impact it has had on our family.
