Camp WeCanDu starts Sunday at Babler State Park!

Camp WeCanDu is DASA’s annual summer camp for youth with physical disabilities to fully participate in a week-long, over-night summer camp experience to discover natural abilities and build friendships that will last a lifetime.

Children living with cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, visual impairments, and many other forms of physical disabilities come together at camp each summer and participate in all kinds of activities to build strength, self-confidence, courage, independence, and a supportive social network.

Thank you to our 2026 sponsors for your generosity and support!

Thank you to The Buddy Fund for providing a $3,600 equipment grant to support our athletes! We used these funds to purchase equipment for our Wheelchair Basketball, Archery, Air Rifle, and National Cart Co Power Soccer programs.

The Buddy Fund was founded in 1962 by St. Louis Sportscaster Buddy Blattner to supply sports equipment to charities and organizations that use organized sports to help children in high-risk situations, or those in need of additional support. The Buddy Fund is able to purchase and donate over $3,800,000 in sports equipment, impacting over 450,000 children in the St. Louis area.
