My Story…

This year I am running for and will continue running for the memory of my beautiful daughter, Savannah. Savannah was able to enjoy many "in-hospital" activities with the counsellors throughout our 9 month stay at Sick Kids Hospital. All i can say is what a fantastic group of volunteers that were there with us day in and day out! They really brought some light to some of our darker days with their uplifting spirits and fun activities. Victoria now benefits from Camp Ooch. They have an incredible program for bereaved siblings. She is able to connect and create friendships with children her age that have gone through the same life experience. She says she will never miss a summer of Camp Ooch!! Camp Ooch is her place! For these reasons i will continue to do this run as long as i can! Please help me reach my goal so other children can have the same experiences Savannah had and Victoria will continue to have! Thank you in advance :) SAVANNAH'S SMILE

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.
