The Camp Kesem Committee needs your help to get the ball rolling on a Boston College chapter of Camp Kesem.  Camp Kesem is a college based weeklong sleep-away summer camp for children with a parent who has or has had cancer.  The program is free for participants and entirely student run.  The BC chapter has applied to receive funding from the LIVESTRONG Foundation but it needs your votes to determine if they receive the funding!  To receive funding they need to have the most votes in the region.

Voting begins this Tuesday, March 12 and continues until the 28th at http://www.vote.livestrong.org.  The site will go live Tuesday!

If you have any more questions or want to learn more head over to campkesem.org or contact BC Freshman Rachael O’Keefe at rachaelokeefe12@gmail.com!
