My Story…

Hi there - thanks for visiting my fundraising page! Help me give the gift of Camp to children and families affected by childhood cancer. I have previously done the run down Yonge St. seven years in a row and while we can't run together this year, I look forward to taking part in this year's virtual run! Along with my father and brother, I am fundraising on behalf of my mom who passed away thirteen years ago. My mom believed in the power of Camp and from a young age my brother and I attended together making countless memories. With the ongoing pandemic we face every day, it's vital that Camp Ooch and Camp Trillium continues to provide virtual programming for our community so that friends and family can be together, and that children affected by cancer can just be kids. Thank you, Michael Scarlett

Description

Kids affected by childhood cancer still need the chance to just be kids!

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 powers 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 1,900 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.

We still run for Ooch!
