Our Story...
Camp Ooch is an amazing organization that helps kids with cancer enjoy feeling like just a kid and not have to constantly be reminded of what they went through. Camp is the one place where kids can go and leave all there worries elsewhere because there are no worries at camp. Helping my team raise money can change the lives of kids and help them feel accepted and normal because they are. My experiences with camp made me remember that cancer doesn’t define anyone! It just defines what they went through and what they were able to overcome!
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.

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