Cameryn’s Cause For Kids Society is a registered, incorporated society in the Province of British Columbia. (S-51724) The Society was started by the Harris family to honour the courageous life of their daughter, Cameryn, who passed away from a SPNET brain tumour at the age of three years old.   

Dealing with a health crisis with one’s child involves a great deal of emotional strength and energy.   Coping with financial worries on top of the pressing emotional issues that a family is  already facing can make the situation even more difficult.   Cameryn’s Cause For Kids is an organization a family can turn to to help ease some of those financial concerns during a child’s health crisis.  Whether it is to provide assistance with unexpected travel costs, a place to stay, or just funds to get a family through while parents are at their child’s side, a little money can go a long way to ease some of that financial worry.  In addition to direct funding, Cameryn’s Cause can provide information and suggest alternative avenues for families to access other means of financial and emotional assistance. 

Who we help:

• Families who have a child (18 or younger) diagnosed with a life-threatening illness or injury.  Children must reside in School District 72, Campbell River area.

• We also provide assistance with funeral costs in the event of a child’s death.

• All applications are subject to board review and approval.
