Camp Quality Eastern Ontario

Hurray for Hollywood! A week in August to party with the stars! What could be more of a blast? The rain never got a chance to dampen our Red Carpet. We played on and still managed to have a great time while we waited for the sun to show up. When it finally did show up, the weather was awesome. Thanks to all of you that made this such a great week for the kids. Every year we are amazed at how so many people can so unselfishly give of themselves for the campers. It is truly a tribute to your ability to give your all for the benefit of the few. This camp is your camp. You make it what it is; a very special place. A place where we can all just live through the smiles of the real STARS. The campers are the STARS of the week. Your Oscar worthy performances have us rolling with laughter all week long. Thank you for letting us be your audience for an entire week. We can’t thank all of you enough for allowing us to share in your lives year after year. We are so fortunate to have our supporting roles in your production. We can’t wait for the next Act; following a brief intermission! Pam & Glenn

Camp Quality is a summer camp for children with cancer -- and more. It crystalizes a year-round support program for the children and their families.

Unfortunately, many children in our communities have cancer. Camp Quality offers them a program of unique depth, backed by almost 20 years of experience. This is a totally volunteer effort, funded solely by the community.

Camp Quality has three benefits:

For a week, it lets kids be kids
It supports children with a year-round "big brother/sister" companion
The companion program gives family members a much-needed break.

Almost all of us have been touched by cancer. Our adult friends or relatives may have cancer. We know how hard it is for adults to bear. Imagine what it is like for children.

Camp Quality was started in 1983. There are now 57 camps in 20 countries, and they have served 30,000 kids. 5 of these camps are in Canada. All helpers at the camp including the medical staff are volunteers, who have been carefully screened. There is no government funding.
