My Story...
As a Cancer Survivor and as an adult, I know how difficult it is to face and fight this life-threatening disease. As a child, facing this challenge is even scarier. Having to adjust to the "new normal" after cancer from such a young age can also bring a lot of anxiety. Camp Ooch gives the children the hope they need and the opportunity to be kids. This privately funded charity also restores a sense of normalcy for their families and brings back some joy and laughter in their lives in spite of the challenges.
Your donation will help me to help make a world of difference for every child. Every donation counts. We can all agree that it is all about the kids!
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.
