Now more than ever, Jewish overnight camp is a critical part of strengthening a child’s religious identity and solidifying their commitment to a Jewish future. Beginning November 2, need-based scholarships will be accepted for Jewish overnight camps for 2021 summer sessions. Federation continues its commitment to making this experience more affordable for families, with the hope that all camps will reopen this summer. Scholarships are awarded to recipients attending summer camps across the US, spanning different denominations of Judaism. For more information and to apply, click here.
