Camp Oochigeas

A childhood cancer diagnosis changes what a child has, not who a child is. There is a possibility for great joy in the darkness that is childhood cancer, and the potential to heal, grow and connect. For 35 years, Camp Oochigeas has been bringing confidence, resiliency, independence, and playfulness to children with cancer and their families. We bring kids to Ooch, and we bring Ooch to kids and their families. 2,400 kids with cancer don’t have access to overnight camp at Ooch Muskoka. Our aspiration is to bring the Magic of Ooch to every child and family in Ontario affected by childhood cancer. As a privately funded organization Ooch relies on the generosity of donors and events to ensure their programming continues to be offered to campers and their families at no cost.
