A Note from the Director
As parents of 4 children, my wife and I understand the power of partnering with great organizations like Camp Cedar Cliff to see our children reach their full potential. Our 300 acres of woods right in the mountains of Asheville, NC and our amazing summer staff make for a great environment for positive, healthy impact on a camper.
Our staff is so excited about opening a new week of camp specifically focused on kids whose lives have been touched by cancer. We plan to throw everything we have at this week and set our sights on creating an environment of JOY for these kids that they will never forget.

A Note from our Partner
While working in oncology, we constantly observe many youth, who are experiencing great hardships. We have searched our hearts for what we could give these youth to dampen their pain. Gracious donors in partnership with Camp Cedar Cliff have opened their hearts to give these youth a Week of JOY. This week will allow the campers to experience many fun filled adventures, plus will also enable them to interact with others of similar backgrounds. Our prayer is for this week to give the campers a positive experience, which helps to steer their lives towards hope and joy.
