Camp CareFree

A Retreat for Adult Cancer Patients

When was the last time you sat around a campfire, chased fireflies or just enjoyed the awesome beauty of the Texas Hill Country? Now you can do all that—and more.

The Anderson Network is thrilled to offer Camp CareFree, a weekend retreat for cancer patients. Camp CareFree is open to any M. D. Anderson patient age 25 or older who receives medical clearance.
