My Story…
Every year we look forward to May as we get a chance to do what we love. We get to support those who supported us! Thank you Camp Ooch for all the wonderful volunteers that would come around our room at Sick Kids and played with Mateja. Even though she was just a baby (5 months old), you always brought toys and made her smile. I know Mateja didn't get to enjoy the wonders of camp but I am so honoured to fundraise for such an amazing organization.
Our Mateja was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma. She had cancer in her bones, blood and large tumour that was formed from her adrenal gland. It was a mother's worse nightmare to hear your child has cancer. To make it that much more challenging it was stage 4. Along with that Mateja faced many complications due to the position on the tumor. She received numerous blood transfusions, pokes in her tinny little arms and surgeries that left scars on her tummy. I want her to continue to be strong and proud of her strengths and courage.
Description
Help send kids affected by childhood cancer to Camp Ooch!
Camp Oochigeas (Ooch) provides children with and affected by childhood cancer with what they need most – the chance to be kids. Ooch is the only overnight camp in Canada to offer on-site IV chemotherapy and blood transfusions. Often referred to as the social cure for cancer, we offer programs year-round in Muskoka, at SickKids, and various other cancer centres and cities across Ontario.
As a registered charity that receives no government funding, Ooch relies exclusively on the generous support of fundraisers, individuals and corporate donors, like you.
Ooch changes the lives of over 1,500 kids affected by childhood cancer every year. However, 79% of kids with cancer in Ontario still can't go to Camp. You can help change that!

Cancer changes a child's life. So does Camp. And so can you.
