Camp Quality Auckland/Northland
Camp Quality is a national charitable organisation providing camps and recreational activities for Children Living with Cancer, managed and run by dedicated teams of talented volunteers, committed to bringing fun, hope and happiness into their lives. Our annual week-long summer camps, winter mini-camps and activity days provide a stress-free and caring environment for the children where fun and friendship are combined with achievable challenges - allowing the children to “just be kids” in a safe environment and where Cancer is not the focus. Camp Quality passionately believes in the power of fun to help children and their families overcome the challenges that living with cancer can bring. The majority of our volunteer base hold a role as a 'companion'. Each companion donates their time to be a one-on-one buddy for their camper for the week of camp and beyond, often forming lifelong bonds. In turn, our companions gain valuable training and are enriched by the experience, standing them in good stead to become future leaders and good humans! There is no cost to families of children attending Camp Quality and there is no cost for companions to attend our training.
