Camp Friendship is a free week-long, day camp for children - 3 years of age through high school - with Spina Bifida and similar orthopedic conditions. Campers are paired one on one with trained high school age counselors and participate in arts & crafts, swimming and other planned activities.
Members Under 3 Years of Age (Baby Day):
Baby Day at Camp Friendship is a day for our littlest members, under the age of 3, and their family members to meet other families and experience camp for the day. Lunch will be provided, and stipends are available to families who travel in from outside the greater New Orleans area. Baby Day is scheduled for Tuesday, July 23, 2024.
Campers with Medical Needs:
Campers’ medical needs are met by trained staff. A registered nurse will be on site for the duration of the camp.
Out of Town Families:
If you live outside of the Greater New Orleans area, we offer hotel stipends and mileage reimbursement for your child to join us for camp. We block off a room at a designated hotel for our families to stay together and near the camp site.
