Volunteer Spotlight: Leah Fenchel

Children’s Cancer Connection is proud to introduce Leah Fenchel as this week’s spotlight volunteer. She’s been working with Children’s Cancer Connection for eleven years, and continues to maintain the commitment and care that make her such an asset to Camp Heart Connection. A cancer survivor herself, Leah gives back by being part of our camp staff.

“The bonding, the fact that everybody gets to leave and be imprinted upon with all the memories, the friends, everything,” make up Leah’s favorite part of being a Children’s Cancer Connection volunteer. She feels like she makes a difference when campers come back for a second or third summer and come to look for her since she’s connected with them over the years.

After camp, Leah says, “You don’t take anything for granted.” And with camp coming up in a couple months, Children’s Cancer Connection is excited for another summer with Leah and the rest of the amazing camp staff.
