Kesem at University of Iowa

Kesem at University of Iowa Our mission is to support children through and beyond their parent's cancer with free, fun-filled creative programs and a lasting community.

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. Camp Kesem at University of Iowa was founded in 2016 and supports children in the Iowa community by providing a free week-long summer camp experience and year-round Through

and Beyond support services. Our chapter is operated by approximately 60 student volunteers and serves approximately 70 campers ages 6-18 per year. Kesem operates at more than 130 chapters coast-to-coast. Its programs and services are all funded by generous donations from individuals, foundations, and corporate partners. Kesem is a federally registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization.

‼️HEY CAMP KESEM‼️
We invite everyone who is interested in Kesem’s mission to an informational Zoom on May 18th. We encourage everyone to RSVP by May 15th: this is not a commitment to anything Kesem related other than the Zoom! Even if you don’t think Kesem is something you want to try, we urge you to hop on the Zoom anyway and get a feel for what we offer, who is eligible, and how to enroll and experience the Kesem magick! Please reach out with any questions!!!🐛✨🤩

Please share this post with any family you know who may be experiencing the cancer diagnosis of a parent💚💙
