Our Story
At Camp Bluebonnet, we’re more than just a camp—we’re a community. Children, families, medical professionals, and volunteers unite in a welcoming environment focused on learning, teamwork, and inclusivity. Our programs provide essential diabetes education while fostering connections that bring a sense of belonging and normalcy, extending well beyond camp.
For families facing a new diabetes diagnosis, Camp Bluebonnet often becomes a beacon of hope, introduced by local doctors and nurses as a positive, supportive network. Here, campers build lifelong friendships, and parents and caregivers find a community that shares their experiences and offers guidance on managing diabetes.
We are more than just a camp; we’re a lifeline of hope and ongoing support for families living with diabetes.

Our Mission
Our mission is to empower children and teens with type 1 diabetes by fostering a supportive community that promotes learning, resilience, and a strong sense of belonging. We strive to create an environment where every child feels supported and encouraged to thrive.


Our Vision
Our vision is to create a world where children and teens with type 1 diabetes feel empowered, confident, and capable of overcoming any obstacles. We envision a future where every child is equipped with the tools and support they need to lead a fulfilling and successful life.
We believe that every child has the potential to thrive, despite the challenges of type 1 diabetes. By providing a supportive and nurturing environment, we empower children to embrace who they are, define their own future, and make a positive impact on the world.
