Camp Scholarships for Children of Families Struggling with Cancer

Jewish children, ages 8-13, who are part of a family struggling with the cancer of a sibling or parent are eligible for full scholarships to Camp Young Judaea Sprout Lake. The scholarships are offered through the Jonathan Krakow Memorial Fund, administered by Hadassah, the Women's Zionist Organization of America.

Camp Sprout Lake is located in Verbank, New York, two hours north of New York City. It combines the best in camping with a strong love for Israel and everything Jewish. The camp is Shabbat and kashrut observant, and accommodates a total of 200 boys and girls. Sprout Lake runs in two sessions: the first from June 24-July 17; the second from July 22-August 14. Scholarships are available for either.
