Help Nick raise money

For participating in 2024 Sporting Life 10K

My Story

Campfire Circle (CFC) hosts overnight camps for children with cancer. I say this every year, but these kids have done nothing wrong, they were just dealt a bad hand. The impact of a positive environment and camaraderie from sharing their experiences with other kids is immeasurable. CFC does amazing work and it's a charity I'm happy to raise money for. 


Personal schtick: On January 10th I broke my fibula playing hockey. By May 31 I plan to be running a 10K. Throw some bones my way to heal my bones. That's how science works.

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.
