Dear donors,
With Christmas approaching donations are coming in, which is wonderful. Preparations for next year´s camps are making progress, dates and locations of the camps are now known. The children with cancer and their brothers and sisters in the age of 12 to 18 years will stay from the 18th of March till the 20th of March in the Youth hostel in Soest http://www.stayokay.com/nl/hostel/soest. The younger children of 6 to 12 years are from the 29th of May till the 31st of May 2016 at the camping de Oldemeyer in Rheeze (Hardenberg), http://www.oldemeyer.nl/
A girl: “ I never wanted to get involved in the VOKK who organizes camps for children with cancer after I was diagnosed with ALL on my 12th. But when I heard of a Camp close to the beach I decided to go. After a warm welcome I got to talk with another girl who had cancer who did the sport I always wanted to do but did not dare to do because of my “vincristine” hands and muscles: pole dancing! Now I have had my first lesson and I am so happy to have made this new friend, with whom I share the experience of having cancer and more.”
When this report was written we received $739 which will fully cover the participation of 4 children, which is wonderful! But of course we aim for $15.000. Do help us accomplishing this cause and spread the word!
