OVERNIGHT CAMP INCENTIVES FOR ISRAELI-AMERICANS

FJC is piloting a new incentive program for families in California, Oregon, and Washington state with at least one Israeli-born parent!

First-time overnight campers may receive an incentive grant of up to $1,500 for up to 19+ days of camp and up to $1,000 for 12-18 nights of camp. This incentive is in lieu of traditional One Happy Camper® grants, and families may still be eligible for additional financial assistance from their camps
ELIGIBILITY:
Family must live in California, Oregon or Washington state and choose an overnight camp in these states
At least one parent of the camper is Israeli-born (or the camper themselves is Israeli-born)
Camper does not attend Jewish day school
Camper must not have attended any Jewish overnight camp for more than 10 days prior to summer 2023 (please note: Some families participated in this program in 2022 when it was a two-year grant; those families remain eligible for their second summer grant if they were new in 2022)
Camper must not have previously received and used a One Happy Camper grant
Multiple children per family may be eligible; we ask for a complete application per child
