Yes! We can help you pay for Jewish summer camp with our grant opportunities.

Jewish Federation of New Hampshire partners with Foundation for Jewish Camp (
www.OneHappyCamper.org) to offer a limited number of grants for first-time campers attending a Jewish summer camp.
We know that no experience is more powerful, thrilling, or transformative than Jewish overnight camp.
Specific memories may vary— camp-wide Maccabiah games, self-made pottery coming out of the kiln, a hike ending around a campfire, challenge of the ropes course, the lakeside Shabbat—but all Jewish camps create life-long friendships and unbreakable bonds to Judaism and the Jewish Community.
Children with pivotal Jewish experiences become adults who value their Jewish heritage, support Jewish causes, and take on leadership roles in their communities. For these reasons, JFNH has committed to this exciting initiative.
If you have questions, please contact the chair of our Campership committee, Nancy Frankel, or call (603) 472-3983.
