My Story...
As we reflect on our past year of isolation and quarantine one cannot help but think of the countless children in hospitals who for years experienced and are experiencing this day after day. These young children are so brave and strong to fight every day in order to get better. It is by running for Camp Ooch and raising money for these children every year that together we can allow them a moment’s rest, to let them just be kids and to be free once again.
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.
