My Story

The run I am participating in raises money for Camp Oochigeas (Ooch), which offers kids affected with childhood cancers and opportunity to experience camp. Ooch operates all year round and is the only residential camp in Ontario with the ability to offer on site chemotherapy and blood transfusions, allowing kids in active treatment to get out of the hospital for a bit. The camp is offered to children with cancer at no cost to their families, relying entirely upon the generosity of 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.
