Help Trace raise money

For participating in Sporting Life 10k - Toronto 2017

Help me raise money to send kids with cancer to #CampOoch through the #SL10K https://raceroster.com/events/2017/6186/sporting-life-10k-toronto-2017/pledge/participant/2092476

My Story…

For the third year running (pun fully intended) we will be tackling the Sporting Life 10K to help send kids living with cancer to camp. It's hard to believe that just 3 years ago, our friend Symone was in and out of Sick Kids hospital undergoing aggressive and painful treatments and procedures with the goal of fighting off cancer that had started in her stomach and spread through most of her body. Symone is now a healthy, strong, confident, TALL, cancer-free teenager. She is a veteran Camp Oocher and we hope all of her happy memories from camp have replaced the painful and frightening memories of her cancer diagnosis and treatment. We want all kids who are living with or affected by cancer to experience Camp Ooch - where kids aren't what they have, they are just kids at camp. So please donate now so we can send more kids like Symone to Camp Ooch!

Description

Help send kids affected by cancer to Camp Ooch!

Camp Oochigeas (Ooch) provides children with and affected by childhood cancer with what they need most – the chance to be a kid. Ooch is the only residential camp in Ontario to offer on-site IV chemotherapy and blood transfusions providing access to campers in active treatment the friendship and fun of Camp. Operating 365 days a year, Ooch offers programs at a residential camp in Muskoka, at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), three other regional cancer centres and at Ooch Downtown in the heart of Toronto.

As a registered charity that receives no government funding, Ooch relies exclusively on the generous support of fundraisers, individual and corporate donors like you.
