You're never too old or too young to make incredible memories. Texas is home to several unique seasonal camping opportunties that incorporate Jewish life into everything from rope courses to Havdalah s'mores. With programs catering to every part of our community, there's a camp for every family. If you're looking for a day of play or a full sleep-away experience, we've got the information to take you from research to reunion.
We know that choosing a camp is a personal and important decision, which is why the Federation is here to provide guidance to help Dallas families find the right Jewish overnight camp for their campers, including campers with special needs. Need a guide through the camp wilderness? We're happy to help!

Jewish Federation of Greater Dallas is thrilled to be partnering with the Foundation for Jewish Camp to provide over $100,000 in One Happy Camper incentive grants for first-time campers.
Families with children attending any of over 160 nonprofit Jewish overnight camps, including URJ Greene Family Camp, Camp Young Judea Texas, Camp Sabra, and Camp Ramah Darom, for their first summer, may be eligible for a grant regardless of need. Families can find camps and apply for grants by visiting jewishdallas.org/ohc.
We want to inspire families to choose Jewish overnight camp for their children, increasing the likelihood that they will continue to live active Jewish lives. We believe that Jewish overnight camp is an experience every child should have and want to send as many campers from Dallas to Jewish overnight camp every summer as possible! Here are some resources to help make overnight Jewish camp more affordable:
*Campers who previously attended camp for 11 days or less are still eligible
