Kesem at Fresno State

Kesem offers free summer camps for children ages 6 to 18 facing a parent's cancer. Its programs also include Club Kesem, with virtual gatherings for different themes and age groups, and Kesem Together day programs that bring children together in their communities throughout the year. College students, Kesem alumni, and staff lead these activities, which provide peer connection, emotional expression, recreation, and support. The organization serves children whose parent is living with or has died from cancer, and its programs are available to families at no cost. Kesem also hosts Parent Club calls with Wonders & Worries, where team members lead conversations for parents navigating cancer and parenting. The Fresno State chapter is part of this broader program network.
