Kesem Princeton

Kesem Princeton Kesem is a nationwide community, led by passionate college student leaders, that supports children through and beyond their parent's cancer.

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 creative programs and a lasting community. Camp Kesem Princeton was founded

in 2014 and supports children in the Princeton community, as well as the larger New Jersey area, by providing a free week-long summer camp experience and year-round Through and Beyond support services. Our chapter is operated by over 80 student volunteers and serves over 50 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.
