Habonim Dror Camp Tavor

Empowering the youth to dream of and build a more just and peaceful world.

Camp Tavor’s mission is to provide an inclusive community where kids have fun being themselves while developing a strong sense of social and environmental responsibility, a caring connection with Israel, and a positive personal Jewish identity.

Tavor seeks to instill kindness, creativity, and confidence in our campers and to nurture the Jewish people of this next generation.

Camp Tavor is committed to cultivating youth leadership and empowerment through our longstanding partnership with the worldwide Habonim Dror Youth Movement, developing a connection with Israel, and supporting year-round, youth-led programming in local communities.

*We welcome transgender, intersex, non-binary and gender-non conforming campers
