Our Story
Dear Friends and Family,
Since Nomi's diagnosis of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in July (2021), we have spent many days and nights at Sickkids Hospital in Toronto and have benefited first-hand from Campfire Circle during these visits. I can attest to the wonderful work the Campfire Circle staff do to keep the oncology kids smiling and playing, as kids should.
To help Campfire Circle in keeping those smiles going, please consider supporting Team Nomi in the upcoming Sporting Life 10K run this May. I understand there are many very serious and important causes needing support right now and assure that any amount would be appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Andrea
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.
