Russian-Speaking Jewish Overnight Campers

Special Camp Grants Program for Russian-Speaking Jewish Campers

A scholarship is available for Jewish overnight campers from the Russian-speaking Jewish community attending a Jewish camp.

This grant is available through a partnership between the Foundation for Jewish Camp, the Jewish Federation of Cleveland and the Jewish Education Center. Cleveland is one of the first communities to have been offered this partnership.

Greater Cleveland 1st time or 2nd year returning overnight campers who were themselves or from families with at least one parent born in countries of Former Soviet Union AND who identify as Jewish and/or consider Judaism part of their identity are eligible for the grant. 

This way to an unforgettable summer. At Jewish overnight camp, kids discover who they are – and who they want to become – while having the time of their lives. They try out new things and find the best version of themselves. Furthermore, Jewish overnight camp provides the opportunity to connect with Jewish peers and role models.
