Event Details
Support a Child by Volunteering
Comfort Zone Camp in partnership with the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation
The CZC/NFFF partnership is unique. It stands out. And, it stands UP for each and every camper. When I asked my campers what their Big Buddies meant to them, they replied, ‘I don’t know where I would be without my Big Buddy.’ ‘My Big Buddy is always available to talk to me.’ ‘My Big Buddy is like a father to me.’ ‘My Big Buddy came to my graduation.’
What is Comfort Zone?
Comfort Zone Camp (CZC) is a national nonprofit organization that provides a safe and fun place for grieving children. In partnership with National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, our camp programs serve those who have lost a parent, guardian, sibling, or significant person. All programming empowers participants to grieve, heal, and grow in healthy ways.
