Description: The English text is as follows: 2月前半のゲストは、Camp Kesem at Long Beach State University(CSULB)で活躍する大学生リーダー、Nickolas “Nova” Dominguezさん(Co-Director)と、Christina “Bean” Beltranさんです。 https://www.kesem.org/ Camp Kesemは、親ががんと闘っている、またはがんで亡くした子どもたちに向けて、年間を通じて無償の支援を提供する全米規模の非営利団体です。中心となるプログラムは、6歳から18歳の子どもたちを対象とした1週間の宿泊型サマーキャンプです。 Novaさんは、高校生の頃にお母様が「トリプルネガティブ乳がん」と診断されたことをきっかけにKesemと出会い、キャンパーとして参加。その経験から「今度は自分が恩返しをしたい」とカウンセラーを経て、現在はCo-Directorとして活動されています。 Beanさんは、ご両親にがんの経験はないものの、家族の中でがんが身近な存在だったことからKesemのミッションに強く共感。大学2年生の時に参加し、今では「Kesemのない人生は考えられない」と語ります。 同じCSULBでSTEM分野を学ぶお二人が、Camp Kesemに関わる理由、学生リーダーとしての想い、そして子どもたちに届けたい「安心できる居場所」について、リアルに語ってくれました。ぜひ最後までお聴きください。 In the first half of our February episode, we welcome two student leaders from Camp Kesem at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB): Nickolas “Nova” Dominguez (Co-Director) and Christina “Bean” Beltran. Camp Kesem is a nationwide nonprofit organization that provides free, year-round support for children who have been impacted by a parent’s cancer—whether their parent is currently battling cancer or has passed away. One of its core programs is a one-week residential summer camp for children ages 6 to 18. Nova first connected with Kesem in high school after his mother was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer, joining as a camper. Motivated by a desire to “give back,” he later became a counselor and now serves as a Co-Director. Bean was strongly drawn to Kesem’s mission because cancer has always been prevalent in her family, even though neither of her parents has had cancer. She joined during her second year of university and says she truly can’t imagine life without Kesem. In this episode, Nova and Bean—both CSULB students studying STEM-related majors—share why they got involved with Camp Kesem, what it means to lead as students, and the “safe place to belong” they hope to create for children and families. We hope you enjoy the conversation. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
