Jewish Day School Families
Capital Camps knows that Jewish identity is best solidified via participation in the two principle tools identified by research as having long-term impact - a quality Jewish Day school and a quality Jewish resident camp. Traditional incentive programs available in our communities do not permit day-school families access to these grants. To address this inequity we have created a program specifically for Day School families.
· $1,000 for eligible first-time campers, grades 2–7 (3, 4 or 7 weeks).
· $250 for eligible first-time campers, grades 2–4 (2 weeks only).
· Children must be currently enrolled in a Jewish Day School.
· Made possible through a generous grant from Capital Camps and a donor that wishes to
remain anonymous.
