What families say
“[Our camper] had an incredible experience at Camp Del Corazon last year, and has been asking to go back ever since. I can only describe it as 'life changing' for her: the friends and experiences she had there fueled her in a way we had never seen when she returned, and we are truly so grateful for this camp.” — Testimonial #1
