We also offer travel scholarships for families.

Camp Odayin provides full service meals prepared on site including breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Parents disclose food allergies (nuts, eggs, milk, etc.) and restrictions (no pork, vegetarian, etc.) in the camp application.

Camp Odayin provides medically safe and emotionally supportive camp experiences and community building opportunities for young people with heart disease and their families. We positively impact camper lives by connecting them with friends who face similar medical challenges in the formative years when relationships, fun, and acceptance are vitally important!
