| I was recently in the Sebago Lake area and it brought back many great memories of Camp Sunshine. My family and I were guests almost 20 years ago, as my son was diagnosed with leukemia the previous year. I remember how it was so relaxing to get away from the ( almost ) daily hospital visits and the stress of seeing my son going through his treatments, and to be able to spend quality time with his older sister, my eldest child. I'm happy to say he is doing great to this day and Camp Sunshine definitely helped us get through that trying time |

| “As a family learning that our little girl was diagnosed with Retinoblastoma was very difficult. We did not even know what it was or what it would mean for us. Camp Sunshine is an awesome place that lets us embrace and interact with others going through the same or similar things." |

| “The energy, atmosphere, and loving community gives me hope in the world again- this place is Hope in the World. I cannot express how thankful we are. Thanking you so much for blessing us with your donation. I know that we will pay it forward soon – and make way for another family to have an amazing experience." |

| “Because a lot of our finances are focused on medical related visits, our family does not travel. To come to Camp, to have the week so generously donated and to experience this as a family has been priceless. Your generosity gave more than just some days in Maine. You gave us courage, strength and energy to keep going and keep fighting.†|

| “Words cannot express what this week has been for us. Spending time with other Retinoblastoma families for six full days has been unbelievably strengthening and life changing. Our families and friends that surround us can only understand up to a limit what we have been and are going thru. They can only walk beside us in efforts to be there for us. Spending time with the families this week has been such a support as there are people that actually walk in our shoes; apparently there are others that share our hard time and we are not along in dealing with this in the world." |

| "I was fortunate enough to first volunteer at Camp Sunshine in September 1999 during my senior year of high school at Holy Name. Not knowing what to expect I was incredibly nervous and anxious. That session forever changed my life. Volunteering at Camp has been the most rewarding experience and over the past 10+ years, the families and volunteers I have met have truly been an inspiration to me." |
