Care Camps Foundation– Care Camp’s Foundation’s mission is to give joy, hope, and the healing power of the outdoors to children with cancer and their families at medically supervised pediatric oncology camps. We will do this by funding COCA oncology member camps and special programs designed to bring the healing power of the outdoors and shared community to these kids and their families. Care Camps Foundation sponsors the COCAcon keynote speaker and COCAcademy speakers, and provides financial aid to COCA Member Camps through the Karen McAndrew COCAcon Scholarship.  

Northwestern Mutual– Northwestern Mutual Foundation is committed to accelerating the search for better treatments and cures for childhood cancer while supporting families undergoing treatment and survivors struggling with late effects of treatment. We have two scholarships available, one for survivors and another for siblings of kids affected by childhood cancer. Northwestern Mutual sponsors the COCAcon Spirit of COCA Award, Camp Spirit Awards, and Best of COCA Awards that help spotlight Member Camps’ amazing accomplishments.
