We believe all children facing a parent’s cancer deserve the chance to fully experience the joys of childhood and be their best selves. We provide year-long support and a week-long summer camp for our campers and families.

Population Served: LGBTQ+, low income, children

For more information, contact Haley Ingram at vermont@kesem.org.

Eligibility Requirements: Medical social workers refer patients to our organization to receive financial assistance.

Our in-person events are in Burlington and Essex. Our camp will be held in Tuftonborro, NH. We provide support with transportation for camp.
