word "cancer" carried such a social stigma during the
agency's founding, the "Little Red Door" became more
commonly used than the official name
What services

bras, wigs, and transportation to and from treatment centers.

uninsured, underserved and medically indigent persons with cancer
throughout Indianapolis.

What is "Camp
Little Red Door?"
Camp Little Red Door is developed especially
for children with cancer ages 8-18. Held at Bradford
Woods, 30 minutes south of Indianapolis, Camp Little Red Door
maintains a medical staff and plans activities that are age-appropriate
and based on each group's skill and ability level. One sibling
per patient is invited to camp once all interested cancer patients
who have applied have been accepted. Camp Little Red Door provides
children living with cancer the opportunity to interact in a setting
where the emphasis is on fun rather than illness.
