Every day at Camp Korey is filled with adventure. The moment kids set foot on campus fun begins! From hitting their first bullseye in archery to expressing themselves with new creations in arts and crafts, the possibilities are endless.
Camp Korey relies on the kindness of hundreds of volunteers every year to carry out our mission of bringing joy to children with life-altering medical conditions.
Many folks give their time and talents while others give while shopping or attending events. Here are some ways you can make an impact for campers and famiilies.
Our purpose is to create empowering, adaptive year-round programs for children and their families living with life-altering medical conditions, free of charge.
When you volunteer with us, you become a part of the Camp Korey story: a caring, supportive, and compassionate community that comes together to enrich the lives of our children living with life-altering medical conditions and their families.

During family camp weekends, the families will bring their child’s own equipment, supplies, and medication to camp. Medical volunteers are available as a resource to the family and for general medical care and any needs of campers, family members, staff, and volunteers.
During kids-only camps, the medical staff and volunteers at Camp Korey provide full medical care to campers while they are onsite at camp.
Although not an exclusive list, we are looking for volunteers in these professions for any program we offer.
Medical volunteers serve under the scope of their professional practice. You will be interviewed by our medical staff and asked to provide proof of license and a current annual background check. Once your documentation has been reviewed, our medical team will determine your appropriate assignment.
Camp Korey campers come to us with a wide variety of complex and life-altering medical conditions. Conditions we serve range from neurological, solid organ transplant, skeletal dysplasia, genetic disorders, bleeding disorders, gastrointestinal conditions, differences in sex development, or facial differences to name a few.
With your help—and the support of our local children’s hospitals—we provide healing and transformative experiences for children who would not otherwise be able to have a traditional camp experience!
The medical team at Camp Korey ensures that campers, volunteers, and staff are healthy and safe. Licensed medical volunteers (physicians, nurses, and nurse practitioners) are needed for weekend family camps and weeklong summer programs to provide routine and/or specialized medical care within their scope of practice. Medical and nursing students are welcome to volunteer as a family pal, cabin counselor, or activity counselor.
