The Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) is seeking partnerships where Students have the opportunity to serve as a Volunteer for our National Summer Camp Program.
The MDA Summer Camp Program is a very unique experience. The week-long residential programs give kids ages 8-17 the freedom to be kids with others who are just like them- at no cost to their families. Volunteer Counselors are by Campers’ sides day and night so that they can do all the fun activities that summer camp offers. In addition to bringing joy to Campers, this fantastic opportunity allows Volunteers to gain high-quality, field-based experience in physical therapy, occupational therapy, medical professions, education, recreation, and family social sciences, as well as earning them extensive volunteer hours. MDA Summer Camp locations are available across the nation. Check out this short VIDEO or MDA.org to learn about Summer Camp’s impact on MDA families and Volunteers.
