My Story…

Last year, my great nephew, Harrison McKinnon, lost his battle to cancer on June 17, 2017. He was 2 yrs, 9 mths old. This year, on Mother's Day, May 13th, in memory of Harrison, my daughter Amanda and I will be joining Hustlin For Harrison's team to complete the Toronto Sporting Life 10k in support of Camp Ooch, so all kids affected by childhood cancer in Ontario have the chance to be kids! This is our personal Mother's Day gift to each other. We will spend this amazing day together, doing something good to support other kids and families who continue to bravely battle childhood cancers. We greatly appreciate any support you might be willing to pledge.

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.
