My Story
As many of you already know, our family was faced with something unimaginable- cancer. Scarlett was only 5 years old when she was diagnosed with a liver tumor. She underwent surgery, chemotherapy and radiation with incredible strength and courage.
Throughout it all, the staff and volunteers at Camp Ooch (now Campfire Circle) were there for us and many other families. Their dedication and devotion brought light into the darkest days.
They made sure Scarlett and others could still just be kids. From making slime to playing board games to simply being there to talk. Camp Ooch helped Scarlett escape the weight of her reality and experience joy even in the midest of treatment.
Camp Ooch remains a part of Scarlett's life and a part of our story.
We hope you'll continue to support us and this organization that brings light, laughter and love to so many kids and families affected by cancer.
