Welcome to Camp Promise, a free, week-long camp and year-round program for kids, teens, and adults with neuromuscular disorders. Each year, campers and volunteers from all over the country join us at our many locations. Will you be the next member of the Camp Promise family?
Camp Promise is proud to offer our program at FIVE locations across the country, and one camp virtually. Think of us like a circus that comes into town, gives a magical experience, then packs up until the next year when we get to do it all over again!

The mission of Camp Promise is to provide a barrier-free, week-long, overnight camp for kids, teens, and adults with muscular dystrophy or select neuromuscular diseases —regardless of age, capability, or ability to pay.
Our camper-focused programming builds independence, confidence, and life skills through traditional camp activities and by bringing campers new experiences through adaptation, technology, creativity, and special guests.
We are a welcoming community where campers learn from and support each other, fostering new and lasting friendships that extend beyond camp. We are committed to providing Camp Promise in a professional, safe, and respectful environment with a leadership team, trained volunteers, and licensed medical staff who support the needs of each and every camper.
Get a feel for camp by spending a day in the life of some of our campers. No two days at camp are ever the same, but you can catch a glimpse of our staple camp traditions as well as the ever-improving programs and activities we bring to our locations each summer.
From counselors, to medical staff to activities staff, we’re 100% staffed by volunteers at Camp Promise. Whatever your skills are, we will put them to use (and then some!).
