Camp for Kids with Diabetes Going Virtual This Summer

03.07.2020

​Kiki's Kids Camp, a four-day summer camp for youth between the ages of 6 - 12 who have been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, will be a virtual event in 2020 in response to social distancing because of COVID-19. 

The camp will be held via Facebook on July 13-16. If you would like to participate and receive more details, please complete the registration form​. Campers will learn about nutrition, diabetes management, independence and self-discipline from trained clinicians and volunteers.​​

Kiki's Kids is funded by a planned gift from the estate of the late Angelique (Kiki) Petropole, a Rome pediatric nurse who had diabetes. Her gift is managed by Floyd Healthcare Foundation and continues to fund the camp and the purchase of diabetes supplies for children in need.

​For more information, contact Floyd Healthcare Foundation by emailing Carter at cacarter@floyd.org​ or call 706.509.3290.
