When I was diagnosed with leukemia back in 1992, I didn't know where the journey would take me. I was just a 12 year old with normal 12 year old hopes and dreams. About a year later, I found Indian Summer Camp. I knew very quickly that I had found something very special. As soon as I "graduated" from camp, I couldn't wait to come back and help the next generation of kids on their journey too. I was fortunate enough to volunteer at Indian Summer Camp for 10 years, filling multiple roles like cabin counselor, activities, arts & crafts and even  producing the camp video. I was so excited the day I learned that  Kids Cancer Alliance, an organization that I loved and was a part of for more than 20 years, was hiring. It has been an amazing experience to work for an organization that I have seen grow from a small camp serving 30 kids to one with multiple camps, a Family Retreat, Quarterly programs and too many other offerings to list. My heart swells with pride when I think of all the good this organization does for kids and families currently on their cancer journey, and I'm very thankful for all the volunteers and survivors that helped lead me down my path to where I am today. Thank you to all of you out there that support this wonderful organization, and to all the volunteers that are helping this current generation of kids battling cancer. I encourage all those kids to reach down and be a friend and mentor to that next generation until we beat cancer once and for all.
