My Story

In May 2022, 4-year-old Carter was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). Carter is a sweet and funny little boy who loves to play with Legos and video games. He was not able to complete his school year in junior kindergarten due to the many medical appointments required for his treatment, but he has been lucky to receive much support from his family, teachers and friends. Today, Carter is currently in the Maintenance phase of his treatment and is enjoying first grade. He knows he is different, with his chemo port and still having to wear a mask--but with Campfire Circle, Carter always feels like he belongs. Throughout Carter's medical care his positive attitude has never wavered, proving what a brave, strong and fierce little boy he is. His journey continues with the support of organizations like Campfire Circle, but most importantly with the family and friends who will always continue have his back!

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.
