My Story

This summer will mark my 9th year with Campfire Circle (formerly Camp Ooch). I've been lucky enough to witness the magic of Camp for kids and their families, and believe in the good that this organization provides. This year, I've been apart of the nursing team that ensures that no medical diagnosis acts as a barrier to the fun, friendship and healing that camp provides. 

Through its in-hospital, community and overnight camp programs, Campfire Circle creates opportunities for kids to build social skills, develop self-confidence and resiliency, and heal through happiness. 

Thank you for giving what you can! 

Description

Help bring joy and laughter to kids affected by cancer or serious illness

 

A diagnosis of childhood cancer or serious illness changes life in an instant. For kids and families, their schedule suddenly revolves around medical appointments and hospital stays, with long absences from school. There is no time for simple joys like friendships, birthday parties or sport activities.

 

Campfire Circle is passionate about helping kids to just be kids, once again. By supporting their in-hospital, community and overnight camp programs, you will help bring joy and laughter to kids and families during their most challenging times, at no cost to them.

 

As part of the Campfire Circle community, you are helping to create opportunities year-round for kids to build friendships and social skills, develop self-confidence and resiliency, and improve their overall wellbeing. 

 

More than a thousand kids were diagnosed with cancer during the pandemic—the need is greater now more than ever. Your support ensures that Campfire Circle’s critical camp-inspired programs will reach even more kids and families across Ontario. Your gift makes life-changing experiences possible.


Thank you for helping to build a world where children thrive and families heal.
