Our story…

WE ALL HAVE OUR REASONS... some of them collective... some of them personal and individual. They are all good reasons - reasons why... to give, to run, to remember. Whatever your reason - our team along with children and families who need Camp Ooch thank you. Thank you for your reasons and for remembering..... Please attach your donation to a team member below. All of the donations will go towards our goal of sending a child struggling with the affects of cancer to camp for a week. This week will provide a slight reprieve and escape from the daily struggles of this horrible disease. Big Hugs, positive vibes and Thanks! Kim and Crew

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.
