Make the Magic

Camp Kesem at UC San Diego presents its 18th annual Make the Magic gala.

Camp Kesem is a national organization that supports children through and beyond a parent’s cancer journey by providing them with a week-long free summer camp, as well as year-round support services with the aim of creating a long-lasting and supportive community. Established in 2004 with the first camp taking place in 2005, UC San Diego’s Camp Kesem has grown from hosting just 15 kids its first year to now being one of the largest in the nation. Kids eligible for the camps are between 6 and 18 years old and needn’t have any affiliation with the university beyond living in San Diego County.
