About MPDCI
It all began with an idea for a summer camp to help kids with Cystic Fibrosis feel normal. That was in 1972 with a long weekend and a handful of kids. Over the years that grew to over 100 kids and 100 staff for a whole week every summer.
We provided our campers with a safe and fun-filled week with expert on-site medical care while at the same time giving their families a much needed respite from the daily and often demanding support that their children's medical needs required.
Over time MPDCI has evolved. We no longer sponsor a summer camp, but instead work year-round providing support and financial assistance through our services and programs.
MPDCI is governed by a volunteer board of directors. Many have dealt first-hand with the consequences of CF. Serving two year terms, the board meets the 2nd Wednesday of each month from 7-9 pm. Visitors are always welcome to attend the meetings, and are encouraged to take part in discussions.
Come join us! Help us to "brighten the lives of children with CF and help young adults to strive toward their goals.
