Become a corporate partner
Inspire your employees, help our Campers
Our corporate partnership programs are designed to build team spirit, morale, and camaraderie among coworkers. Your generous donations will help kids and families affected by childhood cancer.
Align Your Company's Purpose
Campfire Circle receives no ongoing government funding, and we rely on our generous partners and volunteers to help deliver healing through happiness to children with cancer or serious illness and their families across Ontario.
With every $2,500 donated to Campfire Circle, you provide one week of camp experiences at overnight camp, in hospitals, or in local communities, at no cost to families. Your impact is both immediate and long term. Our programs are proven to improve camper outcomes, with participants reporting they feel socially supported, with higher levels of motivation, resilience, and hope, for months and years after their experience with Campfire Circle.
Your corporate partnership is just that: a partnership. We will work together to develop unique collaborations with our shared values that strengthen your brand purpose and provide meaningful employee engagement opportunities, all while ensuring we bring more joy to kids with cancer or serious illness and their families every year.
Our dedicated team of corporate partnership specialists are experienced in creating collaborations for companies both large and small, in a wide variety of industries, designed to help you achieve your Corporate Social Responsibility or ESG goals.
To begin the discussion, contact Corey Smith, Director, Corporate & Community Partnerships, at csmith@campfirecircle.org or 647-933-6567.
There are many opportunities for your company and staff to join us around the campfire! Reach out today.

Examples of Partnership Opportunities
Corporate Donations
A philanthropic gift from your company is the most direct way you can help us bring healing through happiness to kids with cancer or serious illness and their families. Right now, almost 80 percent of kids affected by childhood cancer are unable to access our programs. We have ambitious plans to grow our impact and serve more children and families each year, and your support will ensure we meet kids and families wherever they are in their medical journey.
Cause Marketing
Doing good is good business—in fact, consumers are four times more likely to purchase from a brand they believe has a strong purpose, and 4.5 times more likely to recommend the brand to friends and family. With Campfire Circle’s 40-year history of delivering impactful programming to communities across Ontario, cause marketing partnerships help align your brand with a trusted name while building authentic and meaningful connections with your customers.
Employee Engagement & Volunteering
Connecting your employees with your company’s charitable partnerships is proven to improve employee retention, engagement, and morale. Whether it’s launching a workplace fundraiser or making the most of your company’s paid volunteer days, Campfire Circle offers a variety of flexible options that support your company’s values and culture, while providing fun and meaningful opportunities for employees to give back to their community.
Event Sponsorships
Campfire Circle’s signature events provide an opportunity to connect your brand with our community of supporters. These event sponsorships increase your brand recognition and trust through unique activation opportunities that meet your marketing and business development objectives while providing unique networking opportunities with like-minded professionals.
