to Camp 2009 -
Camp Hope
For
the 14th
consecutive year,
CDTC’s
Comprehensive
Family AIDS
Program's “Kids-To-Camp
Project,” sent 60
terminally-ill
children to Camp
Hope, a summer
sleep away camp
outside of
Houston, Texas.
The camp provides
children with
HIV/AIDS a
wonderful summer
experience with
the safety and
security of
medical staff and
highly qualified
camp counselors.
Each year, our
children come back
from Camp Hope
with stories and
memories that will
last them their
lifetimes.
Check

incredible time
