About the Variety Kids Camp

We’re excited to invite you to apply for the 2026 Variety Kids Camp!

The Variety Kids Camp (previously Variety Kids Sports Camp) is a free, three-day camp, designed for children aged 6 to 17 who are disadvantaged, living with disability, or managing a chronic illness.

This year’s program offers a wide range of activities for children with all interests and abilities. Campers will enjoy sport, creative sessions, sensory activities and opportunities for both quiet moments and active exploration. Our goal is to create a space where every child feels comfortable, supported, and free to enjoy camp in their own way.
