My Story
As many of you know, I've embraced the challenge of long-distance running as part of my journey towards a healthier lifestyle, especially after the introspective period COVID-19 brought upon us all. Running, for me, is not just about personal milestones but also about the joy and exhilaration of participating in community events like the Sporting Life 10K. Coach Steve might say he left me no choice (just kidding!), but truthfully, these races have become a thrilling part of my exercise routine.
This year, I'm back at it, ready to navigate the exhilarating challenge of finding my pace among a crowd of fellow runners. My training has been straightforward, focused on maintaining fitness and reliving the joy I found in last year's race.
I'm running to support Campfire Circle, an organization dedicated to helping children and families facing tough circumstances. It's a cause that, through our collective effort, can make a significant difference. A little from each of us can go a long way in bringing joy and support where it's needed most.
I invite you to be part of this journey with me. Your encouragement and donations will push me across the finish line and, more importantly, contribute to a great cause.
Thank you for your support.
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. |
