Camp Periwinkle Applications Are Now Available

Camp Periwinkle is a week-long overnight camp for children, ages 7-15, who are currently being treated or previously treated for cancer at Texas Children’s Cancer Center. Siblings, within the same age range (age 7 to 15), may attend camp WITH the patient. ALL campers, volunteers and staff members will need to be fully vaccinated to attend camp. Camp is free of charge to all campers.

The health and safety of the community, our campers, volunteers and staff, is our priority. So we will continue to evaluate programming options, mitigation strategies and what modifications may need to be put in place. All programs are subject to change if/as conditions warrant due to COVID-19.
