About Camp H-Town

Camp H-Town is a charitable organization dedicated to providing children with cancer a unique and rewarding experience by offering an “urban camping trip” at Four Seasons Hotel Houston. Each summer, the Hotel converts an entire floor into a “campground for kids” with bunk beds, camping gear and meals, and a program fully-supervised by the caring medical staff from MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital and local volunteers. Campers enjoy a fun-filled week of activities at the Hotel and throughout the city while making new friends and memories. The joy and sense of belonging it brings is priceless, and is without any financial cost to their families.
