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 are never alone. Kesem programs have a lasting impact on children by providing them a peer-support network that understands their unique needs, builds confidence and strengthens their communication skills. 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 at North Carolina State University was founded in 2015 and supports children in the North Carolina community by providing a free week-long summer camp experience and year-round Through and Beyond support services. Camp Kesem at North Carolina State University is operated by 45+ student volunteers and serves 100+ campers ages 6-18 per year. 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.

Dear Kesem Family,

As we wrap up another incredible year with Camp Kesem at NC State 2026, we wanted to take a moment to say one very big THANK YOU to everyone who has been a part of our chapter this year.

Whether you served as a counselor, volunteered at an event, helped with fundraising, donated, supported us behind the scenes, or simply showed up for our campers, we could not have done this without you. Every hour, contribution, and act of kindness helped us create a year filled with connection, support, and Kesem magic.

We truly cannot believe the year we have had. Looking back at everything our chapter and community accomplished, we are incredibly proud of how far we have come and, most importantly, of the impact we were able to make for our campers and their families.

Below, you will find our Yearly Impact Statement and 2026 Yearbook, where you can see some of the memories, milestones, and impact that you helped make possible this year. We hope you take some time to look through them and celebrate everything we accomplished together!

As we look toward the year ahead, we are so excited to continue growing our chapter, strengthening our community, and reaching even more kids and families who deserve the support that Kesem provides.

Thank you for believing in our mission, showing up for our campers, and helping us make the magic happen. We are so grateful to have such an incredible Kesem family, and we cannot wait to see what we accomplish together next year! 💙✨
