ARKANSAS CAMPER INCENTIVE PROGRAM

The Tenenbaum Foundation and the Foundation for Jewish Camp have teamed up again this year for the Arkansas Camper Incentive Program. This statewide program is designed to encourage any Jewish child who is a first-time camper to attend any not-for-profit Jewish camp in North America. The requirements are:

1) Residency in Arkansas (congregational affiliation is not required)

• 2) Must register for a session of at least 19 days to be eligible for a $1,000 grant (first year only). Those campers who attended camp last year with a grant from this program are eligible for a $750 grant for their second year.

3) Registration must be at a non-profit Jewish summer camp anywhere in North America. Eligible camps are listed at www.onehappycamper.org

In mid-December the Foundation for Jewish Camp online registration site will be available to applicants for the first year program. Please note that if you took part in this program last year (2009), you may apply again this year for your second year, but the grant is lower.

We are grateful to the Tenenbaum Foundation for its continuing generosity and support of Jewish families in Arkansas and modeling for our young people the importance of maintaining and contributing to out community.

Program details and a link to the application site are available by clicking on www.onehappycamper.org. All applications must be made through this website.
