My Story...

As a childhood cancer survivor for almost 15 years, I have had the privilege of attending Camp Oochigeas for several years as a camper. I've been on a week long canoe trip, dog sledding, weekend retreats, young adult conferences, and so much more. This place and the friends that I have made there, have a special place in my heart. Camp Ooch gave me the chance to explore and understand myself beyond cancer. I hope that with your donation, it will give other children the opportunity to the same.

Description

A diagnosis of childhood cancer changes life in an instant. 

For affected kids and families, it can suddenly feel like everything is about cancer. Camp Ooch offers a hopeful journey, where kids with cancer can just be kids, and families connect with a community of strength and support when they need it the most. 

They are much more than a summer camp—they offer the social cure for childhood cancer. Their camp-inspired programs deliver fun, friendship, and community to 1,900 kids and 745 families year-round, all across Ontario. As a response to COVID-19, virtual camp and in-hospital programs continue to reach kids and families living in isolation, wherever they are.

Please consider making a donation to my fundraising efforts—your gift will make a world of difference!

Cancer changes a child’s life. So does camp. And so can you.
