Emerging players

• ReSurge International: International nonprofit providing reconstructive surgical care and training in low-resource settings — adjacent peer in delivering advanced surgical techniques (including burn reconstruction) to underserved populations globally.
• Changing Faces: UK charity supporting people with visible differences including burn scarring through counseling, advocacy, and confidence-building — comparable psychosocial reintegration mission, focused on a different geography.

Direct peers

• Alisa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation: California-based nonprofit supporting burn survivors and prevention, including Champ Camp — a residential burn camp for children — making it a direct operational and mission peer to Burn Advocates' camp programs.
• Children's Burn Foundation: Provides financial assistance, reconstructive surgery, and camp programs for child burn survivors in the US and Latin America — directly comparable mission (pediatric burn care + emotional support), with operations overlapping in the Americas.
• Phoenix Society for Burn Survivors: Largest US-based nonprofit dedicated to peer support, recovery, and reintegration of burn survivors — operates a national network of support programs analogous to Burn Advocates' burn camps, with overlapping donor base and survivor community.
• Interburns (International Network for Training, Education and Research in Burns): International nonprofit focused on improving burn care in low and middle-income countries through training and prevention — directly comparable LMIC-focused burn care mission, especially relevant given Burn Advocates' India, Haiti, and Brazil footprint.
• Camp I-Thonka-Chi: Mississippi-based free summer camp for child burn survivors — one of the largest pediatric burn camps in the US, providing the same in-person peer-support and confidence-building model as Burn Advocates' international camps.

Regional players

• Shriners Hospitals for Children — Burns Program: Hospital system operating one of the largest pediatric burn care networks in the US, including acute treatment, reconstruction, and family housing — a broader incumbent in the same pediatric burn care space that Burn Advocates supports and refers into.
