We were honored to support this mission alongside Ohana One Surgical Aid by providing our ๐˜“๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฌ ๐˜–๐˜ถ๐˜ต ๐˜“๐˜ถ๐˜ค๐˜ฌ๐˜บ! burn prevention books and character plushies.

Through the adventures of Camp the Chameleon and Lucky the Curious Kitten, children learn important burn prevention and fire safety concepts in a fun, engaging, and age-appropriate way.

Thank you to the incredible team at Ohana One for helping bring healing, comfort, education, and smiles to children and families in Guatemala. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›

Fire safety is not only about preparation. It is also about helping children feel safe, calm, and informed during stressful situations.

With recent wildfires impacting communities across Southern California, now is a good time to review your familyโ€™s fire escape plan and practice your evacuation route together.

Talk about fire safety in age-appropriate ways, and remember that children often mirror the emotional responses of the adults around them.

If you are not currently under an evacuation warning or order, consider going for a walk (if air quality allows), taking a calming breath, taking a moment to ground yourself, and helping children borrow your calm.

If you are near a fire zone, follow all city warnings and guidance. And remember: if you smell smoke, get low and get out. Stay calm, move quickly, and get outside safely.

When people think about healing, they often think about what they can see.

Bandages. Scars. Hospital rooms. But real healing is bigger than that.

It is physical recovery.
Emotional resilience.
Psychological support.
Confidence restored.
A child returning to school and feeling like themselves again.

That kind of healing takes a team.
Childrenโ€™s Burn Foundation brings that team together, supporting the whole child and the whole family.

We are grateful to partner with Torrance Memorial Medical Center and physicians like Dr. Vimal Murthy, who care for children in the most critical moments.

Together, we help ensure healing continues long after discharge.
Healing the whole child. ๐Ÿ’›

โ€œCamp gives these kids a chance to just be kids again.โ€ ๐Ÿ’›

At Camp Gung Ho, children impacted by burn injuries step away from hospital visits, therapy appointments, and the daily challenges of recovery to build friendships, confidence, courage, and lifelong memories in a safe and supportive environment.

This special day in Calabasas included pool time with the incredible team at Golden State Lifeguards, arts and crafts, laughter, connection, and so many meaningful moments of joy and healing.

As one of the lifeguards shared in this video, camp is about so much more than fun. It helps children build resilience, independence, confidence, and hope for the future ahead.

Every gift helps make these experiences possible:
๐Ÿ’› $50 sponsors a healing art activity
๐Ÿ’› $150 sends a child to Camp Gung Ho for a day
๐Ÿ’› $450 helps provide the full camp experience

Even support for transportation helps ensure children arrive safely to a place where healing continues in community.

Thank you for helping make Camp Gung Ho possible for burn survivors and their families. www.childburn.org/donate

Did you miss Giving New Hope?

We were honored to recognize Noah Wyle, executive producer, writer, director, and Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning star of ๐˜›๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜—๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ต, with the Giving New Hope Award, alongside Patricia and John Nickoll, recipients of the Douglas M. Mancino Spirit of Humanity Award. Their compassion and commitment to lifting others reflect the heart of Childrenโ€™s Burn Foundationโ€™s mission.

One of the most moving moments of the evening was hearing young burn survivors bravely share their stories, a powerful reminder that healing is not a single moment, but a journey shaped by care, resilience, and community. This short clip from Noahโ€™s remarks captures that spirit so beautifully.

Camp Gung Ho is more than just a few days away from the hospital, follow-up appointments, and ongoing physical and emotional therapy. It is a place where children can laugh, build confidence, and connect with others who truly understand their journey.

From art sessions to beach days, every moment helps children feel strong, supported, and free to simply be kids again.

Every gift makes a difference. Whether it supports a day at camp, a healing craft activity, or the full camp experience, you are helping create confidence, connection, and memories that last far beyond camp.

Three years. Untreated burns. Life-limiting pain.

When Dr. Esezobor met Faith, her injuries were classified as an emergency. Years earlier, an explosion while lighting a kerosene stove had changed her life. Without the funds to continue care, her parents were forced to bring her home. Her wounds were managed without specialized treatment, and over time, painful contractures took hold.

Burn injuries do not end when the flames are extinguished. Because of donors like you, Faith received 120 days of comprehensive care and safe accommodations. For the first time since her injury, she had a real chance to heal.

When families have nowhere else to turn, your generosity steps in. ๐˜๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ญ ๐ฆ๐š๐ค๐ž๐ฌ ๐ซ๐ž๐œ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฒ ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐›๐ฅ๐ž. ๐Ž๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐š๐ฅ ๐ƒ๐จ๐œ๐ญ๐จ๐ซโ€™๐ฌ ๐ƒ๐š๐ฒ, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ ๐š๐ฅ๐ฌ๐จ ๐ก๐จ๐ง๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ ๐ฉ๐ก๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ๐ข๐š๐ง๐ฌ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ค๐ž ๐ƒ๐ซ. ๐„๐ฌ๐ž๐ณ๐จ๐›๐จ๐ซ ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ, ๐ข๐ง ๐ฉ๐š๐ซ๐ญ๐ง๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ฉ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐‚๐ก๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ซ๐ž๐งโ€™๐ฌ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง ๐…๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, ๐๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ ๐œ๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ ๐œ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐ž๐ง๐ž๐ฐ๐ž๐ ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐›๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐ž๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐œ๐ก๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ซ๐ž๐ง ๐ฅ๐ข๐ค๐ž ๐…๐š๐ข๐ญ๐ก.

Every child deserves to feel like a hero. At Camp Gung Ho 2026, our campers will discover their superpowers. Courage. Resilience. Friendship. Confidence.

For many burn survivors, camp is more than a fun summer experience. It is the first time they feel fully understood. Fully included. Fully unstoppable.

When you sponsor a child to attend Camp Gung Ho, you are giving a child the adventure of a lifetime. You are helping a camper thrive. You are making dreams come true.

These experiences remind every child that strength does not come from a cape. It comes from within. Be the reason a child discovers their superpower. Sponsor a camper today. ๐Ÿ’› www.childburn.org/donate
