My Story
Hi everyone, as you know every year I do the Camp Ooch 10K run for kids with cancer. This year they've changed their name to Campfire Circle. Daniel would be so happy to know we are helping more kids go to the camp he loved so much. Any amount you can donate to sponsor me on this run is greatly appreciated. I will be running it again this year on Mother's Day to help send as many kids as possible with cancer to camp. It's an amazing organization that runs solely on volunteers and donations, the more we raise the more hearts we can fill with joy! Thank you for helping me with something so close to my heart!
Description
Childhood cancer changes lives. So does camp. And so can you.
A diagnosis of childhood cancer changes life in an instant. For kids and families, it can suddenly feel like everything is about cancer. Simple childhood joys like friendships, birthday parties, or sports teams being left behind in the need for medical appointments, hospital stays, and long absences from school.
Whether it’s in a hospital setting, in the community, online or at overnight camp, CAMPFIRE CIRCLE* fills the void, creating safe spaces for kids to be kids, so families can be families, at no cost to them.
It’s where curiosity and confidence, bravery and acceptance come to play, and healing through happiness is on the agenda, every day, and in every way! Kids and families are never alone, because there’s always room for one more in the circle.
Your support of Sporting Life 10K ensures that CAMPFIRE CIRCLE’S programs continue to reach 1,700 kids and their families every year. Your gift will make life-changing experiences possible.
*Did you know that Camp Ooch & Camp Trillium merged in 2020, and that we have a new name? Announcing … CAMPFIRE CIRCLE! We aren’t changing what we do—we're just changing our name.
