My Story
For the 4th year in a row, I'm running the Sporting Life 10K to support Campfire Circle (formerly Camp Ooch & Camp Trillium) — an incredible charity that brings uplifting, camp-inspired experiences to children affected by childhood cancer. Campfire Circle helps kids and families find joy, friendship, and strength during the toughest times through year-round programs in hospitals, communities, and their overnight camp.
I've seen firsthand how donations make a real difference — bringing smiles, laughter, and healing to courageous kids who deserve to just be kids. If you'd like to help keep the magic of camp burning bright, please consider donating to my run today!
Description
Bring Joy, Friendship, and Connection to Kids Who Need It Most Every day, thousands of kids across Ontario face cancer or serious illness – and miss out on the moments that make up childhood. Laughter, friendship, and adventure are replaced with hospital visits and isolation. For 42 years, Campfire Circle has brought healing through happiness to kids with cancer or serious illness and their families. Through our in-hospital, community, and overnight camp programs, we create opportunities for children to build friendships and social skills, develop self-confidence and resiliency, and improve their overall well-being. By providing play-based experiences, we empower kids to take back their childhood, regardless of their medical diagnosis. Today, more than 40,000 children in Ontario are living with serious illnesses. With your help, we can reach even more of them. Our goal is to serve 10,000 kids by 2030, and when you donate to the Sporting Life 10K, you join a circle committed to that vision. Your generosity ensures every medically fragile child can experience Campfire Circle’s life-changing programs when they need it most, at no cost to their families. Together, we can grow our circle of care and help deliver healing through happiness to more kids and families across Ontario. |
