Celebrating 25 years of Camp Discovery
Facts at your Fingertips
By Emily Margosian, assistant editor, October 1, 2018
In the quarter century since it was founded, the AAD’s Camp Discovery program has given children living with chronic skin conditions the chance to go to camp — often for the very first time, and free of charge. Since 1993, campers from across the globe have had the opportunity to enjoy activities such as swimming, archery, and horseback riding, while building lifelong bonds with fellow campers who have similar skin conditions.
The success and safety of Camp Discovery is ensured through donations made by AAD members and other organizations, as well as the program’s unique staff of dermatologists, pediatricians, physician assistants, and nurses. To ensure another 25 years of good old-fashioned outdoor fun for kids who need it most, learn more or make a donation to support Camp Discovery at staging.aad.org/CampDiscovery.
