Camp Quality New Zealand

“No one can do anything about the quantity of anyone's life, but all of us can do something about the quality." Camp Quality held its first camp in Auckland in 1985 with 22 children from around New Zealand. Since then we have grown into a national organisation, providing annual summer camps, family reunion days, mini winter camps and other activities throughout the year in five regions across the country. Today, we remain committed to creating positive experiences and memories for children (aged 5-16) living with cancer. Each year we train over 500 volunteers as companions for our campers; their big buddies. Our companions provide one-on-one support to ensure our campers are “safe, smiling and sorted” for the week of camp and beyond, often forming lifelong bonds. We are a charitable organisation and our camps are run by dedicated teams of talented, passionate and dedicated volunteers. There is no cost for our campers, their families or our companions. Camp Quality receives no Government funding or financial support or assistance from any other child cancer organisation.
