My Story
Campfire Circle means the world to me. When I was diagnosed I felt lost and alone. If it weren't for Campfire Circle, I wouldn't have learnt to be okay with what had happened to me or experienced the joy, happiness and community that I needed to have during the hardest times. It not only showed me how to be a kid again, but it also gave me a part of myself back. With your help and support, we can give this experience, joy, fun, laughter, and social connectiveness to other kids and families affected by childhood cancer or serious illness.
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. |
