My Story…

Dear Friends & Family, Ellen and I are running the 2018 Sporting Life 10K (#SL10K) again this year in support of Camp Ooch and kids affected by cancer. We also run for Ellen's classmate and friend, Maya Kim, who at the age of 4 was diagnosed with cancer. Camp Ooch changes the lives of kids going through tremendous challenges as they face cancer head on. We run to support the great work that Camp Ooch gives a child with cancer and because Camp Ooch makes a huge difference in the lives of children who fight cancer. To support this incredible cause, please consider making a donation to support our team! Many Thanks! Jo & Ellen

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.
