My Story
This summer will mark my 10th 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. More recently, 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 deliver healing through happiness to kids with cancer or serious illness and their families.
When a child is diagnosed with cancer or serious illness, it impacts the whole family. Kids miss out on simple childhood joys, household incomes are often cut in half as caregivers take on the full-time responsibility of caring for a sick child, and families struggle to make time for special experiences. When you donate to Campfire Circle you are supporting in-hospital, community and overnight camp programs that create opportunities for children to build friendships and social skills, develop self-confidence and resiliency, and improve their overall well-being. Through play-based experiences, you are helping empower kids to take back their childhood, regardless of their medical diagnosis. With your support, we can continue to offer our programs at no cost to families and grow our circle of care to provide additional play-based experiences across all four paediatric hospitals, and improve our medically supported and accessible overnight camps so that every eligible child can benefit from our innovative and impactful programs. Thank you for helping to build a world where children thrive and families heal. |
