Kesem’s support for children grows, adapts, and endures - at diagnosis, during treatment, in remission, after a recurrence, and beyond - showing children that they don’t have to go through these experiences alone, no matter who they are and no matter what happens. 💚

We know that this type of peer-to-peer support can be powerful for a child, not only in how they cope with a parent’s cancer, but in how they view themselves and how they navigate the world.

Parents and children report positive mental health outcomes after Kesem, like enhanced communication skills, improved self-confidence, stronger coping skills, and more.

Help us create a world where every child navigating a parent's cancer can find hope and resilience, and rediscover the joys of their youth through and beyond a parent's cancer. Make a gift now:https://donate.kesem.org/team/608279✨

At Kesem, we know how important it is to give kids the chance to just… be kids. To exist in a space where they are understood, can be themselves, and are given the tools and community to build confidence and resilience.

99% of parents shared that Kesem gave their child a community of support, that their child felt included, and that they would recommend Kesem to other families. That's why we're challenging ourselves to raise $99 today—and we can't do it without you.
