Summer Programs
CAMPFIRE CIRCLE continues to reach kids and families throughout the pandemic wherever they are, with camp-inspired overnight camp, teen & leadership, in-hospital and community programs. In-person or online—no matter what—we continue to be there for you and your family in all four seasons.
Even COVID can’t stop camp!
A lot has changed because of COVID — but not the needs of our Campers. Year-round programs continue throughout the pandemic including overnight camp, with family weekend retreats where families can maintain their household bubbles. Our medical advisory committee and task force, made up of experts in paediatric oncology and infection control, are guiding our efforts to provide safe in-person programming.

CAMPFIRE CIRCLE highlights
Employees on a mission!
Volunteers make all the difference!
Join a caring community of supporters
A sense of belonging
Life-changing support
Camp was probably the first place where I didn’t feel so different anymore. I was surrounded by people just like me having a great time and laughing, and it made me feel comfortable enough to just be myself and not the “kid with cancer".
— Larissa, Camper
From the great outdoors to hospital floors, we are there for kids & families
Volunteers and staff have joined thousands of families on their journey with childhood cancer since 1983. Camp programs run in paediatric oncology centres and communities all across Ontario.
In-hospital programs
We meet kids soon after their diagnosis, bringing moments of fun and laughter to them, their siblings, and parents during time in hospital.
Community programs
We bring the magic of camp close to home or online with year-round community programs across Ontario.
Overnight programs
Two overnight camp sites, including the only site in Canada to provide IV chemotherapy and blood transfusions – hosts programs for kids, teens, bereaved siblings, and families
