Help me raise money to send kids with cancer to #CampOoch through the #SL10K https://raceroster.com/events/2018/14699/sporting-life-10k-toronto-2018/pledge/participant/3491230

My Story…

The time of year has came again where I prepare for my ten km run and remember my late cousin Tanner who was a child with cancer. As a young adult myself I look forward to making life long memories and moments with friends. Unfortunately, Children who have cancer are limited and restricted from such moments. That is why raising money for Camp Ooch is so important for me. I want to help the children who are sick, get back the time they missed from being in the hospital, and help them enjoy the time they deserve as being a kid. In my past experiences camp has changed my life, if it can change mine in anyway, imagine what it could do for a child with cancer.

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.
