My Story
This is my second year running 10K in honour of my cousin Severino, to raise funds and awareness for Campfire Circle and everything they have done for children with childhood cancer. My cousin had leukemia. He was one of my best friends and although cancer greatly affected his life, Campfire Circle and Camp Ooch always had fun activities and crafts to make his days better. They helped create such special memories for Severino and our entire family. I feel proud to run in support of an organization that helped and continues to help children and families fighting against cancer. Thank you for supporting me as I fundraise in memory of my cousin. 💙
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.
