Give Now – Ramah L’Kulam

Dear Ramah Day Camp Greater DC Community,

Ten years ago, we embarked on a mission to bring the Camp Ramah New England overnight experience to younger children in the Greater DC area. A one-week pilot program has blossomed into a robust seven-week day camp with close to 400 campers!

We are proud to offer a program where campers and young adult staff members can live and learn Judaism through the arts, physical activity, and a comprehensive Hebrew environment, including a Hebrew immersion option. Our inclusive camp setting provides a supportive environment, including an integrated 1:1 camper/staff option when needed. We also deliver unique life-changing experiences for the 90 teens and young adults who continue their own Jewish journeys by serving as madrichim (counselors) and in senior staff positions.

Tuition does not come close to covering what is needed to provide these wonderful experiences; we need the help of our donors to provide scholarships to the 70 campers who need them. On this 10th anniversary, we are asking you, our Ramah Day Camp Greater DC family, to celebrate this milestone by helping us raise $10,000.00 for financial aid.

With your help, all campers can experience the magic of Ramah this summer. Their days will be filled with sports, arts and crafts, swimming, archery, gardening, drama, cooking, STEM, dance, lawn games, as well as our climbing tower (Har Ramah), misting arch (Mr. Mister) and our Imagination Playground. We would be grateful if you would help us reach our goal of $10,000.00.

With your generous gift, campers will receive the scholarships they need and experience a summer oof joyous Judaism.

Wishing you and your family a Chag Sameach — a happy Passover!
