About Us

Kesem recognizes and embraces the often-overlooked population of children affected by a parent’s cancer. A one-week long summer camp will be organized each year for children six to eighteen years old whose parent or primary caregiver has had or currently have cancer. Kesem will be a place where these children can experience the simple joys of childhood and relate to other children in similar situations. Student leaders of Kesem will organize all aspects of the camp and fundraise enough money for every child who attends the camp to do so for free.
