Special Love
Every kid has the right to be a kid.

Special Love lets kids be kids, through camps, financial assistance, and a community of support that lets them (and their families) know that they're not alone in their battle.

 

You can support our community of support through your donation and check out our Spring 2013 LoveLetter, view our 2013 Calendar of Events, Volunteer, or sign up for our email list.

 

Our programs are held throughout the year at fully-modernized facilities in the Greater Washington, DC area. Check out our programs for Patients & Survivors, Siblings, and Families by using on the menu above.

From The Blog

  • Dave is super-good at getting out of the way
    If I've learned one thing from the time I've spent at Special Love and Camp Fantastic, it's that sometimes you just have to know when to get out of the way. So it shouldn't be any surprise that I've let wiser heads (and younger hearts) prevail when it came to posting on Special Love's blog, That said, it's now a year and a half later and the stars have aligned to where I feel compelled to finally make an appearance blog-wise. Today is "Giving Tuesday" and I feel the need to give back to an organ
  • One of camp's most bittersweet moments is the time when we have to say goodbye to a camper who's passed out of eligability.  In order to make room for new campers facing the challenges and hardship of a new diagnosis we must turn away old friends who've finished their treatment and gone three years without relapse or recurrance.  We hate to see them leave but are glad to know that they can go.  Eligable to attend or not, however, they will aways be part of our camp family.
  • When I think of someone that has been a huge inspiration to me I cannot help but think of about one hundred kids, all under the age of seventeen, who I spent a week with in the summer of 2012.
