Residence-Based Camp Scholarships

Camp Nageela requests that all families applying for a Nageela Scholarship apply to all applicable camp grants offered in their city/state. See grants by city/state below. If your city/state is not listed please contact the Jewish Federation in your city to see if financial-based scholarships are available. Additionally, many synagogues/temples offer grants towards Jewish camping, please contact your synagogue/temple to find out.

Camp Nageela Scholarship Fund

Camp Nageela Midwest is committed to ensuring that every Jewish child receives an enriching and affordable camping experience. Our funders strongly believe in the value of Jewish camp. As a result the Nageela Scholarship Fund was founded in 2008, as a means to provide you, our valued parents, with financial aid. This need-based scholarship fund awards camp scholarship on a first-come, first-serve basis.
