My Story
Severino’s smile will be in our hearts forever. During the most difficult days, Sevi was the one who kept our spirits and hope alive. Smiles like his are what help to fuel the families of children who are battling cancer. Smiles like this offer a glimpse of normalcy. Smiles like this are why I will be running in Severino’s memory and for all kids battling cancer, this Mother’s Day.
Campfire Circle is an organization that runs day and overnight programs for children with cancer. It is the only overnight camp that can administer chemo to its campers. This is a donor funded organization that makes a HUGE difference in children’s lives. My family experienced the “magic” of camp first hand with Sevi.
We are hoping to make a difference for other children who are fighting just as he did.
Thank you so much for your support.
Love,
Severino’s Angels
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.
