We know that Jewish summer camp and Israel experiences are some of the most meaningful and life-changing experiences for kids, teens and young adults—and some of the most expensive.
We want to help.
The Minneapolis Jewish Federation offers a number of needs-based scholarships to assist with the cost of Israel travel and camp tuition.
Camp Scholarships
Thanks to funds raised through the annual Community Campaign, Federation is able to award financial need-based scholarships to children in the greater Minneapolis metropolitan area for Jewish summer day and overnight camp programs. The 2018 application is now CLOSED. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Robyn Johnson at 952-417-2314 or rjohnson@jewishminneapolis.org.
