My Story…

I am running for SOPHIA, and for all other kids affected by cancer. Sophia is an incredibly brave and strong little girl who was diagnosed with leukemia last September. She has made incredible progress and after 6 months of treatment at Sick Kids, she is planning for her return home to Timmons in the coming months. Sophia LOVES the Camp Ooch programming at Sick Kids. We are hoping our friends and coworkers will either put on their running shoes and join us on May 13th or contribute to our fundraising campaign so that all kids affected by childhood cancer have the opportunity to experience the “Magic of 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.
