Camp Corral
At Camp Corral, we’re all about empowering America’s military-connected kids! Our programs are designed to help them make awesome new friends, build strong coping skills and boost their confidence. As a national leader in supporting children of wounded, ill, or fallen military heroes—many of whom take on caregiving roles at home—Camp Corral equips them with life skills to grow into resilient, independent individuals. Serving kids ages 8 to 15, Camp Corral partners with the best camps across the country to provide unforgettable, fun-filled experiences, all at no cost to families. Every year, we share our camp dates and locations on Veterans Day, with applications opening each January on a first-come, first-served basis. Come join us and be part of something amazing!
