JOB SUMMARY
The Sunrise Day Camp Counselor supports Sunrise Day Camp - Staten Island for children ages 3 1/2 - 16, and is the only dedicated full summer day camp in the world for children with cancer and their siblings. The camp is designed to meet the emotional, social, recreational, and physical needs of these children while allowing them to enjoy the comforts and safety of their own homes at night. Sunrise Day Camp offers a full, multi‑week summer activity program plus year‑round camp‑like programs at our campgrounds and other locations that provide exclusive use of their facilities. The camp is offered free of charge to all children being treated for cancer and their siblings on a non‑sectarian basis. By raising funds from outside sources instead of charging parents, we help alleviate some of the costs and related stress that parents incur caring for a sick child throughout the year.ABOUT YOU
The Sunrise Day Camp Counselor is an individual aged 18 years or older who will participate in a magical summer experience for our campers. We are looking for mature, responsible, energetic, and excited individuals who can positively impact the lives of our children. Sunrise Day Camp hires counselors, supervisors, and specialists.

Transportation can be provided.WHAT YOU’LL DO
