My Story…

Let's do this TOGETHER. Let's raise awareness on childhood CANCER. Let's support. Let's FIGHT!!! For those who know, my little brother Maximass is currently fighting through cancer known as "Lymphoblastic Lymphoma." It has been extremely challenging for him to cope mentally and physically but Camp Ooch was able to help lift his spirits up while he was an inpatient at the hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. Camp Ooch is a camp which provides children with cancer (inpatient and outpatient) with fun play areas, activities, support and a chance to feel like a kid again. Please HELP me reach my goal to help raise awareness on Childhood Cancer and support Camp Ooch! Every dollar counts and ALL proceeds go directly to the camp. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Samantha

Description

Help send kids affected by childhood cancer to Camp Ooch!

A diagnosis of childhood cancer is a big, scary, sudden swerve in the road, changing life in an instant. 

For affected families, it can feel like everything is about cancer. Simple, childhood joys like friendships, birthday parties, or sports teams are left behind in the need for medical appointments, hospital stays, and long absences from school.

For over 35 years, Camp Ooch has offered a different path – the healing power of fun, friendship and self-confidence, and the joy of kids getting to just be kids! 

Often referred to as the social cure for cancer, Ooch provides programming at an overnight camp in Muskoka, at SickKids in Toronto, in specialized paediatric centres and in communities across Ontario. Camp Ooch is the only overnight camp in Canada to offer onsite IV chemotherapy and blood transfusions. 

Camp Ooch is a privately funded, volunteer-based organization that relies exclusively on the generous support of fundraisers, corporate donors and individuals, like you.

Ooch changes the lives of over 1,500 kids affected by childhood cancer every year. However, almost 80% of kids with cancer in Ontario don’t have access to the wonders of camp. You can help change that.

Cancer changes a child's life.  So does Camp.  And so can you.
