About The Center for Courageous Kids

 

We are a unique Medical Camping Facility where children battling the most serious illnesses can attend, free of charge. We run two types of programs. In the summer, the ill child (ages 7-15) attends a week long session with other children suffering from the same illness. During the school year, we hold family weekends wherein the child attends with his/her family. It is a fabulous opportunity for the ill child to come out of the shadows of their everyday lives and step into the spotlight with other children coping with the same challenges.

You can help to mend the scars of serious illness that no one else can see by giving these very brave children self-confidence, friends and magical memories.  Welcoming children and families from across the nation, we also train and host hundreds of volunteers.   

Kids from all over the country are experiencing laughter and friendship at The Center for Courageous Kids.  If you're searching for a camp for medically fragile children located in the Kentucky and Tennessee regions, please check out The Center for Courageous Kids.  A medical camp serves children who could not go to a traditional camp.  We applaud those facilities across the country who are providing unique and high caliber experiences for the many children battling life threatening conditions in their communities.  It takes a community dedicated to providing comfort and happiness to our bravest children.  It's a privilege for us to be located in this gorgeous Kentucky bluegrass and so close to our area's prestigious pediatric centers of excellence, and to have the opportunity to meet so many wonderful families who travel to us from near and far.
