Camelot for Children was founded in 1987 to provide supportive programming for children with cancer, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, muscular dystrophy and other serious, chronic and terminal illnesses or disabilities. The organization pairs a safe, welcoming environment with dynamic programming that helps these children flourish socially without concern for their medical circumstances.
Camelot offers educational programs, such as tutoring support, in addition to monthly social gatherings designed to provide those who attend with enjoyable bonding opportunities. Each summer the organization hosts Camp Camelot, a seven-week program that brings together the children, volunteers and the community, to create a memorable experience for all involved.
Today, Camelot helps hundreds of children and their families throughout the Lehigh Valley and continues to welcome new families to its 11-acre campus. Emily Knudson, PT, MSPT, Camelot’s newly appointed executive director, is focused on developing innovative ways to evolve the organization’s programming and add exciting new events in the future.
