Gales Creek Camp Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing a fun and supportive environment for children and teenagers with type 1 diabetes in the Pacific Northwest. Through their summer camps, participants not only enjoy traditional camp activities but also learn important self-care habits and gain confidence in managing their condition, all while connecting with peers facing similar challenges. With a focus on promoting an active and independent lifestyle, Gales Creek Camp empowers campers to develop healthy habits and understand the relationship between food, exercise, and insulin. The camp's staff, many of whom have diabetes themselves, serve as role models and demonstrate that a diabetes diagnosis does not limit one's potential. Ultimately, Gales Creek Camp aims to show children that they can lead fulfilling lives despite their condition.Generated from the website
