Applications for Jewish Overnight Camp Scholarships Now Being Accepted!

Many of us have the privilege of looking back fondly on our summers at Jewish overnight camp and all they provided: the friendships, the self-discovery, and often, the spark for our Jewish pride. Recognizing that Jewish overnight camp is an important part of strengthening a child’s Jewish identity, Federation is once again helping Miami-area children ages 8 to 17 attend sleepaway camp by distributing need-based scholarships. Since 2002, the Annual Federation/UJA Campaign has allocated $100,000 annually to this initiative. Applications, due January 31, are available here.
