All programs are provided to eligible families for free, including onsite medical care, meals, and round-trip bus transportation. Learn more about Camp Casco by visiting www.campcasco.org.
Lucy’s Love Bus is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that helps children with cancer by providing free integrative therapies such as massage, yoga, meditation, acupuncture, music therapy, and therapeutic horseback riding.
