 The Saint Barnabas Burn Foundation
is able to send burn survivors to camp through the generous support
of the Sandy Hook Friends of Saint Barnabas, Futures & Options
for Kids, New Jersey’s Firefighters, and generous individual
supporters.
The Children’s Burn Camp provides an environment that promotes
self confidence, mutual respect, pride and accomplishment. It is a place
where kids can simply be kids. Every July burn survivors from all over
the world have the opportunity to attend this special camp.
The Children’s Burn Camp, located in Union, Connecticut, is set
on 176 acres in the woods and is staffed by volunteer firefighters,
medical professionals specializing in burn treatment and burn survivors.
The Children’s Burn Camp provides children with the opportunity
to swim and boat in a private pond and enjoy the pleasures of hiking,
fire fighting games, overnight campouts, fishing, archery, arts and
crafts, dancing and sports of all kinds.
For those survivors with significant burn injuries
aged 8 to 18 looking to participate in the burn camp experience at The
Children’s Burn Camp, please contact Lisa Jones at The Burn Center
at Saint Barnabas at (973) 322-5682 or via e-mail at lmjones@barnabashealth.org or
