­Candlelighters enriches the lives of children with cancer by providing ongoing support and advocacy throughout their treatment journey. For over 40 years, we’ve offered a transformative Summer Camp experience at Camp of the Tall Pines in New Mexico, free of charge to childhood cancer survivors and their siblings, and recently added a family weekend camp. Each year, about 120 children engage in activities that boost wellness and self-esteem, surrounded by peers who understand their challenges. The camp is powered by an all-volunteer staff of fifty, ensuring that we can welcome every child who wishes to attend. We rely on community support to kick off these vital programs and keep them thriving.­­­­­­­­­
