Fun in the sun! 🌞 September is coming....!

Childcan families - join us for Fun in the Sun!

Picture this...

Your toes in the warm sand in front of a beautiful clear lake...

The happy sounds of children playing nearby...

Someone just caught their first fish...

There's lifeguards, so you know they're safe...

Nearby, someone just put something delicious on the grill...

That's exactly what Childcan families will be experiencing this coming Saturday.

We have exclusive access to this beautiful property for one day only and all Childcan families, no matter where you are in your journey, are invited to join us.

There'll be fishing, kayaking, swimming, games and activities (and prizes!), a BBQ, and more. Fun for all the family.

It's all made possible thanks to the family who have generously offered the use of their property, their friends and local businesses who have sponsored the event, and YOU. By participating in events like the Childcan Pyjama Walk, you made it possible for us to say YES to this incredible opportunity.

We'll even bring sunscreen.

So what are you waiting for? If you are a Childcan family, please register now.

Join a PYJAMAGANZA!

Hi! I’m Aliyah.

Wanna know why we call it a PyjamaGanza?

It’s because when kids like me have cancer, we wear our pyjamas a lot at the hospital, during treatments, and at home when we’re resting.

So, will you come for a walk with me (and my friends, too)?

Pick a Childcan Pyjama Walk in one of these communities:

Mitchell – Saturday, September 12, 2026

Owen Sound – Saturday, September 19, 2026

London – Saturday, September 19, 2026

LaSalle – Sunday, September 20, 2026

Brights Grove – Sunday, September 20, 2026

Sault Ste. Marie – Saturday, September 26, 2026 <– NEW THIS YEAR!

Not close to a walk? That’s okay! You can make your own PyjamaGanza where you live. Just contact us and we'll help you plan it.

Because a PyjamaGanza is More Than Just Pyjamas, it’s people like YOU showing up for kids and families like mine.

The first 10 people have already qualified for this year's crossbody bag!
