CAMP GRANTS AND NEED-BASED SCHOLARSHIPS MAKE TRANSFORMATIVE SUMMER EXPERIENCES ACCESSIBLE TO EVERY FAMILY.

Need-based Camp Scholarships 

The Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia is honored to provide need-based scholarship assistance to help offset the financial burden camp tuition can be for many families. In an effort to make this process as simple as possible, we provide camps with block funding to be added to their financial aid funds. The camp then distributes scholarships directly to the families requesting assistance.  You can reach out to your camp directly to learn more about their scholarship process.

Please note that at this time we only provide funding to nonprofit, Jewish camps in Pennsylvania. Below, you will find a list of camps that were awarded Jewish Federation funding in our most recent fiscal year.

How to Apply

Applications for need-based camp scholarship funding, through the Jewish Community Fund, are by invitation only and will open on Nov. 2 through Dec. 4, 2025. If you have questions about funding, please email grants@jewishphilly.org. Applications will be open on this page.
