Our Story
Go Zoah’s Village!!!!
We are back again this year honouring my daughter Zoah and raising funds for Campfire Circle!
Campfire Circle (Camp Ooch) was a very special place and community for Zoah and our family. At camp, Zoah got to go canoeing, do archery, gymnastics, swimming, music, art, and she was connected with a beautiful and loving community. We will forever be grateful for these precious times.
We will always support this incredible charity and the work they do for kids affected by childhood cancer.
Last year, Zoah's Village was among the top ten fundraising teams for the general challenge! Collectively, we raised $11,813.35!In 2023, Sporting Life 10K raised more than $1.9 million. Thanks to our team and 16,000 participants and supporters, we have provided 720 weeks of ccritical play-based experiences in pediatric hospitals, at our two overnight camps and in communities across Ontario, all at no cost to families.
Thank you so much for supporting our family, our village, and 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.
