My Story...

Camp Ooch has been near and dear to my families heart ever since my cousin, Edyn, attended this camp.  Although battling cancer, she was able to create bonds and memories, and she was able enjoy all of the summer-time activities that every child deserves to enjoy.  It gave her a sense of normality, and it also gave her one AMAZING summer.  I walk for OOCH because it gives children battling cancer, as well as their families, a sense of hope in that they, too, are able to be a “normal” kid.  

Camp Ooch is truly such a special place, and every donation, no matter how big or how small, is greatly appreciated.  Thank you SO very much, and thank you for supporting.  

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.
