San Diego, California Camp Erin - Because no child should grieve alone Camp Erin is an initiative created and funded by The Moyer Foundation in Seattle, WA - a non-profit organization established by Major League All-Star pitcher Jamie Moyer and his wife, Karen. Camp Erin is a bereavement camp designed for children ages 6-17 who have experienced the loss of a family member or friend. It is a traditional, fun, high-energy camp combined with grief education and emotional support. Camp Erin is named in memory or Erin Metcalf, a friend of the Moyers who lost her battle to cancer at age 17. Erin's wish was to help other children. Through The Moyer Foundation, Camp Erin has been established across the country, making it the largest network of bereavement camps in the country. Each Camp Erin is facilitated through a partnership with a local hospice or grief support agency. Together, these organizations and the The Moyer Foundation raise funds to help establish new camps, bringing the healing experience of Camp Erin to children in more communities each year.
