Our Story...
My Daughter Leigha was diagnosed with Wilms Tumour at the age of 3 in 2012. She is now 12 years old and has been cancer free since September 2012. She has made so many friends over the years at both Trillium and Ooch. She is continues to do on-line programs over the past year. This is such a great experience for any child dealing with cancer.
Our Team is made up with close friends we meet when we all started Kenollie PS when we were 5 and we are still good friends today over 40 Years later....
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 our fundraising efforts—your gift will make a world of difference!
Cancer changes a child’s life. So does camp. And so can you.
