Kesem at DePaul University

Kesem at DePaul University Kesem is a nationwide community, led by passionate college student leaders, that supports children through and beyond their parent’s cancer.

Kesem is a federally registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Kesem is a diverse community led by passionate and empathetic college students working to ensure that children facing the challenges of a parent’s cancer have space, connection, and support to rediscover the joys of childhood. Our mission is to support children through and beyond their parent’s cancer with free, fun-filled crea

tive programs and a lasting community. Camp Kesem at DePaul University was founded in 2016 and supports children in the Chicagoland community by providing Camp Kesem, a free week-long summer camp experience, and year-round Through and Beyond support services. Our chapter is operated by approximately 20 student volunteers and serves approximately 30 campers ages 6-18 per year. Kesem operates at 115 chapters nationwide. Its programs and services are all funded by generous donations from individuals, foundations, and corporate partners.
