Camp Kesem is a 501c3 non-profit driven by passionate college student leaders that supports children through and beyond their parent’s cancer. Our local chapter has been operating since 2004, and has expanded from serving 15 campers our first year to 260 campers this upcoming year.

What we do:

Camp Kesem provides these children with a completely free of charge week-long summer camp, aiming to foster a long-lasting, and supportive community for our campers.  

As a part of this effort, our organization hosts an annual charity fundraising gala called Make the Magic. This year, we aim to raise $55,000 through this event to help send more than 260 children ages 6-18 to camp completely free of charge. The event will take place at the Royal India on the 5th of February 2022.
