Annually, Altrusa Chisholm Trail supports Camp Dreamcatcher, a camp that allows children with cancer and their brothers and sisters to enjoy a normal summer camp experience at Camp for All in Burton, Texas, while receiving specialized medical care.
Camp Dreamcatcher serves all Baylor Scott & White McLane Children's pediatric hematology/oncology patients and siblings between the ages of 6 and 15. Between 95 to 105 children attend each year.
Altrusans volunteer their time and passion to serve others to make each child's camp experience a positive one.
