For participating in Sporting Life 10k - Toronto 2017

Our story…

This is the 4th consecutive year that St Pius X Catholic School has put together the team “St. Pius X - Team Maya Kim” to run/walk in the Sporting Life 10k in support of Camp Oochigeas . Maya Kim is a grade 5 student at St. Pius X school. Maya bravely battled both Neuroblastoma and MDS since the age of 4. Maya received treatment at various hospitals, including Sick Kids in Toronto and St. Jude in the USA. During her second bone marrow transplant in 2014 at St. Jude, Maya's teacher and school mates put together the team as they knew how much Camp Ooch meant to Maya. During that time Maya could barely walk, and her dream was to recover her health so she could attend camp ooch during the summer. And she did. Maya is in remission, although still battling several side effects from all the chemo toxicity. Please help us send Maya and other children affected by childhood cancer to Camp Ooch, a place where they can forget about cancer and be kids.
