At the St. Paul Jewish Federation, we believe everyone should be able to connect and thrive within our community. To make Jewish experiences more accessible, we offer grants and scholarships for various needs. Whether it's for summer camp, college, Jewish education, or programs for children with special needs, our financial assistance ensures that all families can participate fully in the vibrant Jewish life of St. Paul. We are here to help you feel welcome, supported, and excited to be part of our community.
The St. Paul Jewish Federation is partnering with The Foundation for Jewish Camp’s One Happy Camper to provide grants for first-year Jewish overnight campers. Grants are first come, first served, NOT based on financial need.
To qualify for the One Happy Camper grant, your child must:
*If your child meets the requirements above, they may qualify for a $1,000 grant if attending camp for at least 19 consecutive days or a $700 grant if attending for 12-18 days. Please note that campers who participate in Jewish day school or yeshiva are ineligible. But you can apply for Federation summer camp scholarships.
