Care Camps Fundraising

Auction – Benefiting Care Camps of Canada

Auction Overview

Each year, in the spring, the BC Lodging and Campgrounds Association hosts an online consumer focused auction to raise funds for Care Camps of Canada, an organization that sends  children to specialized oncology camp – a place where these kids can forget about the chemo, the radiation, and all the hard stuff that comes with cancer…. and just be a child again.

  • 2022 auction and donations raised $7,975

  • As we head into our fourth year, we have raised more than $16,578 for this worthy cause.

Want to help! There is always time to donate.  Please email Darlene at Darlene@bclca.com or give her a call at 604-908-5594 and be included in this years 2024 auction.

What is Care Camps?

Working together, we can help send children living with cancer to specialized oncology camps where they can just be themselves.  The camp experience equips the children with the skills necessary to meet the challenges they will face while fighting their disease at the same time allowing them to have fun and – just – be – kids.

It costs nearly $2,000.00 to send a child with Cancer to Camp for one week! Please help us send more children to camp.
