A retreat for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families
Camp Sunshine Recognized at the One Hundred
Camp Sunshine was honored at the One Hundred on June 15, 2017. Created and supported by the Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center, the One Hundred is an awareness and fundraising initiative that celebrates hope in the cancer community.
Each year, the one hundred honors 100 everyday amazing individuals and groups – caregivers, researchers, philanthropists, advocates and volunteers from around the globe – whose commitment to the fight against cancer inspires us all to take action.

On August 12, 2017 Camp Sunshine will take over the LL Bean campus in Freeport, Maine for the first annual Watermelon Festival. The event is part of a year-long centennial celebration of the LL Bean flagship store on Main Street.
