One Happy Camper Grant Applications are open for first-time Jewish overnight camp experiences!
At Jewish overnight camp, kids have the time of their lives while discovering who they are—and who they want to become. They sing under the stars, share jokes, build traditions, and form lifelong friendships with an amazing crew of counselors and bunkmates.
Apply for the One Happy Camper Grant by December 31, 2025 and your camper could receive up to $1,500 toward summer 2026. Eligible campers must be entering grades 1–12 after camp and attending an approved Jewish overnight camp. After December 31, grants of up to $1,000 will be available while funds last—so don’t wait! Apply here. There’s a perfect camp for every Jewish camper. Find yours today on The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington’s Camp Page.
Each year, 15 Jewish teens from across the country are selected to receive an award of $36,000 each to honor their leadership and efforts to repair the world. Nominate a teen leader through Dec 22, 2025 or teens can apply directly by Jan 8, 2026. Click here to learn more.
The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington is offering teens up to $3,000 in tuition assistance for a peer Israel experience through their summer camp, youth group, study abroad program, and more. This year, the Federation has loosened eligibility requirements so more teens can benefit from this opportunity. For details, click here or email Udi Eitan.
