Kesem at Penn

Kesem at Penn is a chapter of the national Kesem organization that supports children through and beyond their parent's cancer. Kesem's flagship program, Camp Kesem, operates free summer camps for children who have been impacted by a parent's cancer. Kesem is the largest national organization dedicated to this unique population, and for many children their Camp Kesem experience is a life-changing event—providing them with a community of children with similar experiences, and a safe and welcoming environment to have fun and rediscover their childhood.
