Summer camps are serious about fun

When a child is living with a serious illness, it impacts the whole family. So, it is a joy to support unique summer camp experiences that are dedicated to the siblings of children with serious illnesses. SeriousFun Children's Network camps help children and their families reach beyond illness to discover joy, confidence and possibilities. The Vertex Foundation has supported camps since 2019.
