A Promise for Every Camper

For 75 years, Wilshire Boulevard Temple Camps, Camp Hess Kramer, and Gindling Hilltop Camp have been a sacred place of belonging, joy, and Jewish life. Each summer, children discover who they are, who they can become, and what it means to live with Jewish values at the center of their lives.Ensure that future generations experience the same magic, care, and connection that have defined our camps for decades.

 

Why Giving Matters

When you give to Wilshire Boulevard Temple Camps, you sustain an ecosystem of care that tuition alone cannot fully fund.

Annual Giving bridges the gap between the real cost of running camp with excellence and what fees can reasonably cover. Philanthropy provides the flexibility, training, staffing, and resources required to meet the needs of today’s campers and families.
