Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation
The mission of the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation is to seek a cure for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, and to improve the quality of life for children and adults affected by these diseases. The TowerCares grant supports Camp Oasis, a summer camp that enriches the lives of pediatric IBD patients by providing a safe, supportive camp community among their peers. The camp offers an environment of self-empowerment for patients giving them a sanctuary where they can simply be kids and have fun. The TowerCares grant will help cover food, camp staffers, equipment, and supplies for three local children that could not otherwise afford camp.
