Help Rebecca raise money

For participating in Sporting Life 10k - Toronto 2018

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/3748461

My Story…

Hi Friends and Family: I'm running the 10KM again this year on May 13th!. It's a personal goal of mine to try and keep balanced and take the time to be healthy and there's nothing like committing to a run with thousands of other people to keep you accountable! The race though also raises money for Camp Ooch, a great charity that my work has supported for many years. Camp Ooch works with kids diagnosed with cancer and helps keep them focused on being a kid by sending them to camp. The camp is fully serviced by medical professionals and forms an important part of a child's treatment and healing journey. Any little bit you are able to donate, goes a long way. Wish me luck on the 13th!

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.
