We’re starting our week with another #SUMMERSPOTLIGHT, this time from Ashton Helveston (AC ‘23) and Abby Hopper (AC ‘22)!💎☀️

These two started their summer as counselors at Camp Kesem, an organization that provides support to children who have been impacted by a parent’s cancer. They were joined by many other ADPis as counselors, including Samantha Goodman (AC ‘23) and graduated members, Mackenzie Horne (AC ‘22) and Olivia Matthews (AC ‘19). 

About her experience, Ashton said:
“The 5 days of summer I get to spend being a counselor for Camp Kesem Vandy are my favorite 5 days of the year! I am so lucky to work with an amazing group of counselors (some of which are also my amazing ADPi sisters). This community is so special that words cannot possibly describe it. The last 3 years as a counselor have taught me so much about empathy, being a good friend and listener, and what unconditional love and support really looks like. So beyond thankful for this experience and this community and even more grateful I get to share it with my ADPis!”

Abby added: 
“Kesem has been the best week of my summer for the past 3 years and each year I feel so lucky to share such a special experience with some ADPi sisters! I am so grateful for everything Kesem has taught me and I am inspired every day by both my campers and my co-counselors. It is truly the most special place and allows you to be your most authentic self and I am forever grateful to have shared the Kesem experience with both current ADPis and ADPi alumni.” 

We 🫶 you all and your passion inspires us everyday!!
