TLC Camp, Inc. was established in 1983. It’s purpose is to provide a fun-filled week of camp activities for children with cancer and a sibling. The children are ages 5 through 13. What makes this camp unique is that it is the only camp in the state of Illinois that allows a sibling to share in the experience. The Lombard Junior Women’s Club sponsors TLC Camp. Lombard Juniors is a volunteer organization that has been in service since 1930. Both Lombard Junior Woman’s Club and TLC Camp are not-for-profit. The camp costs the Lombard Junior Women’s Club approximately $500 per camper. A continuing goal is to have each camper attend free of charge. To meet that goal, TLC funding relies on donations from civic organizations, churches, corporations and private individuals. TLC Camp is a 501(c)3 organization, therefore all contributions are tax-deductible.
