This summer I had the privilege of volunteering at Campfire Circle, where we help children with cancer and other serious illnesses heal through happiness. Campfire Circle is a privately funded charity that brings laughter and joy to children with serious illness and their families. 

The energy and passion at camp was one of the most magical environments I have ever been a part of and will leave a lasting impact on me for the rest of my life. Having the opportunity to spend time with these special children to watch them grow and challenge themselves, gain confidence as they tried new things and develop new friendships was incredible. Whether it was playing games, completing activities or singing camp songs these kids reminded me every day that the little joys in life can help you overcome your most challenging obstacles. I cannot wait to go back and spend more time in this inspiring environment.

My eight days were nothing short of incredible and this remarkable place wouldn’t be possible without the funds and donations that make a massive difference in the healing process of these special campers. That said, I have opened a page to help support Campfire Circle and these children with your donations. Thank you in advance for your generosity! 

I would love to share more about my experience and if you want to discuss a volunteer role, I would love to chat and share more about the memorable time I had!

Did you know...a diagnosis of childhood cancer changes life in an instant. For kids and families, it can suddenly feel like everything is about cancer. Simple childhood joys like friendships, birthday parties, or sports teams being left behind in the need for medical appointments, hospital stays, and long absences from school. Whether it’s in a hospital setting, in the community, online or at overnight camp, Campfire Circle fills the void, creating safe spaces for kids to be kids, so families can be families, at no cost to them. It’s where curiosity and confidence, bravery and acceptance come to play, and healing through happiness is on the agenda, every day, and in every way! Kids and families are never alone, because there’s always room for one more in the circle. Your support ensures that Campfire Circle's programs continue to reach 1,500+ kids and their families every year. Your gift will make life-changing experiences possible.
