Welcome:
Exceptional Citizens' Week at Camp Fatima
Each year nearly 300 volunteers arrive at Exceptional Citizens’ (E.C.) Week at Camp Fatima. These volunteers are committed to providing our exceptional campers with one of the most memorable weeks of their lives.
Established in 1954, E.C. Week makes all the traditional joys of summer camp available to thousands
of children and adults with mental and/or physical challenges. This special week is provided at no cost
to campers’ families and caregivers.
Camp is for the Kids
With that motto in mind,
E.C. Week’s volunteer Head Staff works year round preparing for the campers’ arrival – arranging activities and entertainment, procuring food and supplies, and organizing and training its staff of volunteers. This is
all done to ensure each camper has a safe, fun and unforgettable week.
On the surface, there is no ‘typical’ E.C. Week volunteer. We are all ages and from all backgrounds. We are nurses, lawyers, teachers, police officers, students, professionals and tradespersons. The bond that brings us together each year is the joy we see in the eyes and hear in the laughter of our exceptional campers. While volunteering takes sacrifice and service, it is the volunteer counselors and staff that are thankful for the life-changing experiences that the campers give to us.
