Kostopulos Dream Foundation/Camp Kostopulos

Camp Kostopulos would like to express our deepest gratitude to Morgan Stanley for six incredible years of service, partnership, and support.

The impact that Morgan Stanley’s volunteers and team members have made on our campers, families, and community has been truly remarkable. Through their dedication, generosity, and commitment to inclusion, they have helped create unforgettable experiences and opportunities for individuals with disabilities to thrive, connect, and belong.

We are especially grateful to the Enable Committee for championing Camp Kostopulos and helping make this partnership possible. Your advocacy and leadership have made a lasting difference in the lives of so many campers and their families.

A special thank you to Shannon, Yolanda and the entire Morgan Stanley team for your passion, kindness, and unwavering support over the years. Your service has left a meaningful legacy at Camp Kostopulos, and we are incredibly thankful for everything you have done.

Thank you for believing in our mission, investing in our community, and helping us create a world where everyone has the opportunity to experience the joy and magic of camp.

From all of us at Camp Kostopulos: thank you, Morgan Stanley, for six amazing years of partnership and impact. We are forever grateful.

One of the most beautiful parts of the Kostopulos Dream Foundation/Camp Kostopulos is seeing former campers return years later and realizing that the impact of camp never truly leaves them.

This week, we had the privilege of welcoming back Jackson Lacy, a former Neurofibromatosis (NF) camper who attended Camp K for many years. Jackson traveled from Las Vegas to visit Camp K, reconnect, tour the many new facilities built since his last visit in 2016, and reflect on the role Camp K played in his life.

What he shared with us was incredibly moving.

“Being there gave me the opportunity to meet others with similar disabilities, which had a lasting impact on my confidence and sense of belonging. It was a place where I felt understood, supported, and encouraged to be myself.”

For decades, Camp K has proudly hosted specialty Neurofibromatosis camps, welcoming participants from across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and beyond. For many campers, Camp K was the very first place where they met another person living with NF—where they no longer felt different, isolated, or alone.

At Camp K, friendships were formed, confidence was built, and a community of belonging was created.

Jackson shared that some of his best memories and lifelong friendships came from Camp K and that those experiences helped shape who he is today. Hearing that meant more to us than words can express.

Even more inspiring, Jackson pledged to sponsor a child to attend camp later this year so another young person can experience the same connection, belonging, joy, and opportunity that Camp K gave him years ago. That full-circle moment is exactly what Camp K is all about.

Stories like Jackson’s are powerful reminders that Camp K is so much more than a camp.

It is a place where individuals discover confidence.
Where differences become strengths.
Where friendships become family.
Where people feel seen, understood, and valued.
And where memories and impact last a lifetime.

To all of our campers, families, volunteers, donors, and supporters who have helped make these experiences possible over the years—thank you. Your support continues changing lives across generations.

Be brave. Be bold. Be you. 🎭✨
