My Story
Hey everyone,
For those of you who know me well, you know I don’t enjoy waking up before 6am unless it’s for one of 3 reasons:
1. To catch a flight on my way off to vacation someplace tropical
2. To hike up a mountain/volcano somewhere and see sunrise, and
3. To raise money for children with childhood cancer to go to summer camp.
This is my 8th year running and I’m asking for your support! My goal is to raise $1,500!
It takes less than 5 minutes to donate and your donation goes a long way to helping kids enjoy the magic of summer camp and many other programs throughout the year. Campfire Circle offers overnight camps with the ability to provide on-site IV chemotherapy and blood transfusions, community programs (such as day camps and leadership programs), in-hospital programs with one-on-one bedside visits occurring daily at paediatric oncology hospitals across Ontario, and virtual programs.
For those of you who are in a position to give, thank you so much 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. |
