Camp Kesem is a nationwide community, driven by passionate college student leaders, that supports children through and beyond their parent’s cancer. They are the largest national organization dedicated to this unique population with over 100 college chapters in the country. Dr. Kerri Ashurst has served as the UK Chapter Student Advisor for Camp Kesem since its formation in 2016. Camp Kesem KY had their first camp in July 2017 with 19 children attending and their second camp in June 2018 with 28 children attending. A camp was held in July 2019 with 31 campers with the help of 19 student volunteers from UK. In 2020, the pandemic forced us to modify our camp program and create "Kesem at Home." Kesem at Home was piloted nationally in 2020 and served over 8,600 children across the country through over 140 virtual sessions. UK held Kesem at Home programs in both 2020 and 2021. We were able to return to an in-person camp in July 2022, with 29 campers. The UK Kesem Chapter raised $28,032 and exceeded their goal for Make the Magic 2022. ‍
