About Us
Camp Enchantment is a New Mexico camp for children aged 7 to 17 who are on treatment for cancer or in survivorship from cancer. Our volunteer staff includes doctors, nurses, counselors, artists, and activity coordinators. We serve approximately 200 children and staff every year. Childhood cancer is tough, and our program helps meet the emotional, psychological, social, and physical needs of our campers. Donated funds pay for our programs, which include food, activities, and events. Our volunteers make it all possible, and we're grateful for our donors.
We are proudly recognized as a COCA Gold Ribbon Accredited Camp and accredited by the American Camp Association. These accreditations reflect our unwavering commitment to creating a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for every camper.
Our COCA Gold Ribbon Accreditation signifies that we meet rigorous standards designed specifically for camps serving children affected by cancer. This ensures our camp meets the highest standards for serving our campers with exceptional medical oversight, comprehensive safety protocols, strong emotional support systems, and programming tailored to the unique needs of our campers.
ACA accreditation demonstrates that we meet more than 200 industry standards related to health, safety, staffing, programming, and risk management.
Together, these accreditations represent our promise: to provide a place where children can be safe, supported, and free to experience the joy and connection of camp. When campers come to us, they enter a place where excellence isn’t just a goal it’s a promise.
