Making It All Possible

We’re here to help make camp happen. If cost is a concern, you’re not alone. 

Our scholarship program helps families say yes to camp so every child can feel at home in a joyful Jewish community that lasts beyond summer.

 

How to Apply

The process is simple and equitable, and your information is shared only with our Campership Committee and kept strictly confidential.

Need-based financial assistance forms are available through CampMinder. Once your camper is enrolled, log into your account, click Forms and Documents, and select Application for Financial Aid.

A separate application is needed for each camper, though only one set of financial documents is required.

If you have questions, please contact Janine Regal, Registrar, at janine@wbtcamps.org.

More Ways to Support Your Camper’s Summer

To ensure that Wilshire Boulevard Temple Camps can support as many families as possible, we also encourage you to apply for additional funding sources.

Other options may include:

  • One Happy Camper / PJ Library
  • Your synagogue, rabbi, or auxiliary organization
  • Your child’s religious school or day school
  • Local Jewish Federations
  • Jewish Free Loan Association

Each funding source has its own deadlines and requirements, so please reach out as early as possible to confirm eligibility.
