Dads Walk Hadrian’s Wall for Camp Kesem

As you may or may not know, many of our City Dads Group brothers are on an 84 mile hike along Hadrian’s Wall in England to raise money for a new chapter of Camp Kesem at the University of Maryland in honor of our friend, Oren Miller. To make it even more personal Chicago Dads Group’s own Jim Higley (Who is a cancer survivor himself), is participating in this incredible trek. Today City Dads Group is sponsoring the guys in hope of raising at least $1000 for the cause.

Here are some quick facts about Camp Kesem and this extraordinary endeavor:

• Camp Kesem is a free summer camp for kids who have been touched by a parent’s cancer.
• Each Camp Kesem chapter is hosted at a College or University and is organized by students.
• It takes $40,000 to seed a new chapter.
• 12 Dads are walking across Hadrian’s Wall in England to raise the $40,000 needed to start a new chapter at the University of Maryland.
• Many of the dads walking are organizers, blog contributors, members, and friends of City Dads Group.
• The University of Maryland is the alma mater of Oren Miller, a friend and fellow dad that lost his battle with cancer last year, leaving his wife and two children.
