Heart Camp Cost / Sponsors

June 12–16, 2012

Thanks to the generosity of many donors, a $25 non-refundable registration fee is the only cost requested of each camper.

If your child is not a patient of Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh and would like to attend Heart Camp, you will be charged $250 to cover your child’s expenses.

Children who are not patients of Children’s are also required to have their medical records reviewed by the medical staff of Children’s Heart Center.

Approval to attend camp will come following this review and a consultation with both your child’s cardiologist and a cardiologist from Children’s.

Space is limited and patients of Children’s Hospital will receive first preference.
