The mission of the Sunrise Association is to bring back the joys of childhood to children with cancer and their siblings worldwide. Sunrise accomplishes this through the creation and oversight of welcoming, inclusive summer day camps, year-round programs and in-hospital recreational activities, all offered free of charge.
Sunrise Association Day Camps are the world’s only full-summer day camps for children with cancer and their siblings, provided completely free of charge. Providing memorable moments since 2006 for children ages 3½–18, Sunrise Association Day Camps bring the simple pleasures of childhood back to children struggling with cancer, changing months of loneliness and isolation into summers filled with sunshine, laughter and happiness.
Sunrise Association Day Camps are affiliated with renowned hospitals and medical centers around the world. Sunrise on Wheels is a one-of-a-kind program that provides hours of Sunrise-fun to children undergoing treatment in pediatric oncology units at participating hospitals. Sunrise Association Day Camps are proud members of the Sunrise Association.
In addition to in-person programming, Sunrise Association offers bold and innovative virtual programs to reach children battling cancer across the country including Wheels Up!, a 30-minute interactive travel program and SunriseVX, our virtual summer camp.
