Camp Kesem JHU

Mission Statement

Camp Kesem JHU is a week-long summer camp available to all children ages 6-16 who have a parent in treatment for cancer, in remission for cancer, or who has passed away from cancer, regardless of financial status, race, religion, or nationality. This year, camp will take place from August 16th to the 21st. The camp currently caters to 65 campers, with a 3:1 camper to counselor ratio. Our goal is to provide these campers with a magical week of sleep-away fun and friendships forged in a safe, compassionate, and cancer-aware environment.
