Welcome to the

Illinois Burn Prevention Association

Jim Miller, 2008 Guest Speaker
Former Chicago Bears Quarterback, 1998-2000

The Illinois Burn Prevention Assoc. was created to raise money for children who have experienced a significant burn injury that required hospitalization. Money is raised from an annual golf event and the generous support of sponsors. Over the past 12 years, the Golf Invitational outing has raised over $660,000.

Formerly called the Illinois Burn Camp, the one-week camp is now called “Camp I Am Me”. The camp is in honor of the children who attend, where they build self-esteem while learning to deal with their injuries. To expand the event’s outreach, proceeds will also benefit the Loyola University Burn Center and the NFSA Educational Fund for public education programs that help prevent burn injuries.
