My Story
Camp brings joy and healing to kids with cancer or serious illness and their families. That’s why I’m fundraising for Campfire Circle.
I first ran for Campfire Circle (then Camp Ooch) in 2008 in memory of my late wife who lost her battle with cancer. She was a big believer in the power of summer camp and we (my sons and I) honour her memory every year. This will be my 18th run - it does not get easier with time! We have raised and donated approximately $1,000,000 for Campfire Circle over the years, but we need your help to keep going! Please support my run by donating generously. My sons and I are deeply grateful for your support.
Thank you to my recent donors!

Description
Help deliver healing through happiness to kids with cancer or serious illness and their families.
For over 40 years Campfire Circle has provided play-based experiences through our in-hospital, community, and overnight camps for kids with cancer or serious illness and their families. We empower kids to take back their childhood, regardless of their medical diagnosis.
Now, more than ever, kids with serious illness and their families need moments of joy, connection, and healing.
When you donate to Campfire Circle you build friendships and social skills, develop self-confidence and resiliency, and improve their overall well-being.
With your support, we can offer our programs at no cost to families and grow our circle of care 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.
