My Story

Thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page.  As many of you know, Campfire Circle (formerly Camp Ooch) has always held a special place in my heart.  A childhood cancer diagnosis is something that affected our family many years ago and it is amazing programs like the ones that Campfire Circle provides that helps alleviate some of the stresses and pressures that families go through while fighting their battle.   Please help me raise vital funds to ensure that Campfire Circle can contintue to provide overnight camps, day camps and in hospital programs so that these kids can just be kids again!

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.
