Our Story
Esme was diagnosed with leukemia last August when she was four years old. She spends a lot of time at the hospital for lumbar punctures, chemotherapies, and pain management.
Being at the hospital is really hard and often feels scary, and the only thing she looks forward to while she is there is crafts with Campfire Circle. They've helped her connect with things she loves and feels confident doing in the midst of a lot of fear and uncertainty.
Campfire Circle makes Esme's worst days a little better, and we're grateful to everyone who supports their work.
