About
http://campkesem.org/arkansas
Camp Kesem is a college student run free summer camp for children affected by a parent s cancer. We fund raise all the money and supplies for camp ourselves as a 501c3 non-profit organization. This will be our first summer and we hope to serve at least 30 children in Summer 2016 and accepting children ages 6-16. We still have 20 remaining spots open!
Kesem is a nationwide community, driven by passionate college student leaders, that supports children through and beyond their parent's cancer.
A program of Kesem, Camp Kesem operates free summer camps for children who have been touched by a parent's cancer.
Founded at Stanford University in 2000, Camp Kesem has since expanded to over 80 chapters in 38 states across the country.We serve children who have lost a parent to cancer, have a parent undergoing cancer treatment, or whose parent is a cancer survivor - an estimated population of over 3 million children in the United States.
Camp will be held at Camp Bear Tracks, and will be from July 31st to August 5th. This camping experience has a lasting impact on children by providing them a peer-support network that understands their unique needs, builds confidence and strengthens their communication skills.
