A summer camp for kids facing a parent’s cancer? Yeah… we’re all in 💚✨

#CampKesem is a place where kids can laugh until their stomachs hurt, cover themselves in paint during messy games, try adventurous activities, and just be kids—all while surrounded by people who truly understand what they’re going through.

And the best part? It’s completely free.

That’s only possible because of an incredible community of donors who show up year after year—and especially during #CampAroundTheCorner—to make sure every camper gets their place at camp.

As we get closer to summer (just one month away!), there’s still time to make an impact. Learn more about Kesem and help bring even more #KesemMagic to life at the link in our bio ✨

Want a behind-the-scenes look at how #CampKesem actually comes to life? 👀💚

At @Kesem.KU, our very first session of the summer, Operations Coordinators are in full planning mode: organizing supplies, finalizing schedules, prepping activities, and making sure every single detail is ready for an unforgettable week.

Because while camp feels like pure magic, it’s really powered by months of intention, care, and a whole lot of heart from volunteer student leaders like these—across more than 115 chapters nationwide.

From unforgettable activities to the quiet moments that help campers feel seen and supported, every part of #CampKesem is thoughtfully built, and made possible by a community that believes deeply in these kids.

Without that support, camp wouldn’t be the same. With it, student leaders have everything they need to create a week where campers can simply show up, have fun, and be kids. 🏕️

Give now at the link in our bio to help us bring the #KesemMagic to life this summer at camp ✨

What starts as one week at #CampKesem can last a lifetime 💚

For Paige “Eeyore” Chase, camp was more than just a place to spend the summer. It was where she found people who understood her, a space to process her grief, and a community that has stayed with her ever since.

Stories like Eeyore's are why #CampKesem matters. Because camp isn’t just a week of fun—it’s a foundation for healing, belonging, and a future filled with possibility.

And it’s only possible because of donors like you.

With #CampAroundTheCorner, your support helps ensure more kids can find what Eeyore found: connection, confidence, and a community that never lets them go ✨
