For participating in 2024 Sporting Life 10K

Our Story

In 2012, we lost our beautiful daughter Stella to brain cancer and our lives changed forever. Please help us let the world know that Stella's fire still burns bright, and that cancer did not extinguish her incredible spirit, unstoppable drive or her ability to find JOY in every day. By supporting my 10K run, you will not only help our family honour and remember Stella, you'll also be making it possible for kids like Stella and her brothers and sister have the chance to experience the magic of camp!

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.
