My Story
I am running for Campfire Circle (formerly Camp Ooch) in memory of my wonderful niece Faith who lost her battle with cancer the day after her 15th birthday. Camp Ooch was a very important part of Faith's life she was able to attend for 7 years. Camp Ooch promotes what you can do and allows cancer patients to continue their treatments while having a camp experience. Many volunteers devote time to making this wonderful experience what it is. Faith loved camp Ooch and being with others while supporting & everyone achievements and keeping in touch with them even outside of Ooch. Let's help another child develop confidence they can do and enjoy being a child too. Donate to Campfire Circle Today
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.
