Camp Wonder (www.csdf.org) is a FREE summer camp for children with any skin disease, ages 6 - 16. Each year, children from around the country with chronic skin disease take a break from being a patient for a week and focus on just being a kid. Camp Wonder is a special place free of judgment and stares! We create an environment of acceptance and support to empower the children to be themselves. Camp Wonder is held at Camp Arroyo, in Livermore, CA. We cover all costs associated with camp, even travel if the child lives outside the San Francisco Bay Area. We partner with UCLA, UCI, USC, Navy Medical, UCSF and Stanford to provide medical care while at camp. If you are interested in referring a patient or having your child attend (ages 6-16), please fill out a form at https://www.csdf.org/refer-a-camper-staff or email applications@csdf.org with any questions.

The mission of the National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF) is to drive efforts to cure psoriatic disease and improve the lives of those affected. The history of NPF began with Beverly Foster of Portland, Oregon, the year she turned 30. Because her psoriasis was severe, Beverly told her husband, Larry, that the one thing she wanted for her 30th was to talk to other people with psoriasis. Larry placed an ad in the local paper on Aug. 29, 1966 (Beverly’s birthday), looking for just those people. Today, more than 50 years later, NPF is the leading national nonprofit organization supporting research on psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and advocating for the needs of the psoriatic disease community. NPF is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with community divisions and volunteers across the U.S. We invite you to get involved, support research and make your own place in our history.

CSDF was the 16th birthday wish of Francesca Tenconi. At eleven, Francesca was diagnosed with pemphigus foliaceous, a rare skin disease. Having been an active, outgoing child who was on a competitive swimming team, one of the most frustrating and emotionally difficult parts about her diagnosis was looking different and feeling isolated. She yearned to meet other children with skin disease who could understand the burdens of such a visual illness. For her 16th birthday, she asked family and friends to donate money to start a non-profit that would address the unique challenges of children's skin disease. CSDF was founded a week after her birthday on June 3, 2000. Our two main programs are Camp Wonder and Wonder Wish to help children in North America.
