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/3498771

My Story…

I am once again running the sporting life 10k in memory of Cassidy, one of my best friends. Cassidy died 4 years ago due to cancer that she was first diagnosed with at the age of 7. As a child she had the wonderful opportunity to attend Camp Ooch which quickly became one of her favorite places. Every child deserves the chance to be able to go to camp, especially children with cancer. They deserve the opportunity to spend time at camp whether it be for a day at Ooch downtown or for a week at camp in Muskoka, every child deserves that chance. They want the opportunity to laugh, shout, dream, and play. They want the chance to be a kid. Please help support me in giving more children the opportunity to go to camp!

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.
