Our Story

We are a group of Campfire Circle volunteers, who get to experience the magic of camp alongside our amazing campers.

One of our traditions at Camp is that when we see a camper doing something nice, challenging or brave we give them a "step in the right direction" — a sticker to add to their braid and a public shout-out for a job well done.

The magic of camp brings much-needed joy to kids and families affected by childhood cancer or serious illness. Through its in-hospital, community and overnight camp programs, Campfire Circle creates opportunities year-round for kids to build friendships and social skills, develop self-confidence and resiliency, and improve their overall wellbeing.

This year, we are challenging ourselves to run, walk and roll a few kilometres in the right direction in support of Campfire Circle. Past and current volunteers are welcome to join our team in fundraising and with all the fun we will have along the way!

Thanks for the day campers!

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.
