Experience Camp

The Epilepsy Foundation of Michigan is thrilled to reaffirm our unwavering dedication to providing transformative camp experiences for youth with epilepsy! With a steadfast commitment to fostering a safe, inclusive, and enriching environment where every camper feels empowered and supported, we are excited to announce: two amazing camp experiences in 2026!

Kids Camp

Offered to campers ages 7-15, this is a unique camping experience developed especially for young people with epilepsy.

Family Camp

Crafted for families in Michigan with children aged 17 years or younger who are living with epilepsy, as well as their family members residing in the same household.

"I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the Epilepsy Foundation of Michigan and camp. It means the world to our daughter, she has made so many new friends and built connections with people she can reach out to—not just about epilepsy, but about life in general. It’s also been a huge comfort to our family to know that we’re not alone in this journey. We’re not the only ones navigating worries about her future, school, or any of the other challenges that come with epilepsy. It’s such a relief to have a community of people who truly understand, where we can share, be heard, and then move forward."

Support Our Camp Programs

Providing camp to children and teens with epilepsy has the power to change their lives. Epilepsy can be very isolating and can deeply impact a person’s self-esteem and self-confidence. We want our young people with epilepsy to be empowered by their epilepsy and not feel embarrassed or ashamed. It is hard to believe that a summer camp experience can address this huge issue, yet it does.  While it is part of our mission to eliminate the financial burden to our camper families, the cost to offer this experience still very much exists. That is why we are reaching out to community members like you. Our request is simple; support camp and your dollars will go right to work in the hearts and minds of campers with epilepsy and their families.

Volunteer

Volunteers play a pivotal role in making camp a success! We have been fortunate to have some of the best volunteers to serve our epilepsy population at camp. From program volunteers to medical volunteers, we invite you to apply and help us make more memories.

We're SO close to reaching our goal of $30,000. Your gift will be matched!
