Grants for Russian Speaking Jewish Campers
Foundation for Jewish Camp offers a funding program for participating camps to provide grants to campers from families with at least one parent (or the camper themselves) born in countries of the former Soviet Union.
Camper Eligibility
At least one parent or the camper themselves must have been born in a country of the former Soviet Union: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, or Uzbekistan, and consider Judaism part of their identity.
To apply for RSJ support, please reach out to your preferred camp from the list provided below and inquire about financial assistance for RSJ families. Each camp administers the funding process independently and Foundation for Jewish Camp does not have access to information regarding the remaining availability of funding at specific camps.
This grant may also be used in addition to One Happy Camper® and other grants for additional savings.
