Our Story

We are in the 7th year of battling cancer and this journey has been tough. Sophie has had every possible cancer treatment, Chemotherapy, Surgery, Bone Marrow Transplants, Radiation and Immunotherapy. This journey has included infections, bouts of vomits, low blood counts, over 200 days in hospital. But throughout this journey, one constant companion has been Campfire Circle. Whether it was those gloomy days in hospital when all felt lost, or the kindness of the volunteers trying to sooth Sophie before a big surgery, or the multitude of events including, Drama classes, Art sessions, Halloween, Christmas and above all those incredible days in Camp where Sophie could be a child again, CAMPFIRE CIRCLE and its incredible people have allowed us to laugh and enjoy through the pain.

As I write this, Sophie has relapsed and we will be going into treatment again. We will be walking into the unknown, So this time its personal on so many levels!! Run with us and help Campfire Circle

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.
