Summer Camp Scholarships Available

The Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle's Camp Scholarship Application is now available for the summer of 2012. The Camp Scholarship Program is designed to help families in Washington State* with the cost of camp tuition. We believe that the Jewish overnight camp experience is an integral component in building a child's Jewish identity.

The online camp scholarship application is available at www.JewishInSeattle.org/CampScholarships. For families without internet access, a hard copy of the camp scholarship application can be sent upon request.
