Come play an important role in the lives of grieving children by being a Cabin Big Buddy. Big Buddies are assigned to 2-3 kids during camp and will accompany them during their experience at Camp.
The goal of Camp Erin is to provide a supportive and caring environment for children and teens who have experienced the death of someone close to them. Fun, recreational activities are designed to help campers process their grief & develop coping skills. Camp Erin is designed to provide many outlets including physical, emotional, and artistic expression.
Prospective Camp Erin Volunteers must be at least 18 years old, be able to pass a background check, and attend a one day training to equip them to support grieving children.
Camp Erin occurs in October, annually. Please contact us for current camp dates.
