Help Leigha raise money

For participating in 2022 Sporting Life 10K

My Story

Camp has been amazing for me.  At age 3 she was diagnosed with stage 3 Wilms Tumor (Kidney Cancer).  I am now 13 years old and will be 10 years cancer free this September.   I run to raise money for myself and many other kids to go to camp.  My mom and her two great friends Leissa and Kerry who have been friends since they met in Kindergarten at Kenollie PS which is the same school I went too. Please help us reach our goal of $1000.00 Thank you in advance.

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.
