Scholarship & Grant Information

CAMP ACCESS FOR ALL - DON'T LET COST HOLD YOU BACK! 

The Temple Akiba Scholarship program is for need based financial assistance to supplement the tuition cost of Akiba Resident Camp 2023. All funds are distributed on a first come, first served basis and can be requested during the registration process. Scholarships are available because of our participation in the Jewish Federation’s Tour de Summer Camps, which is an annual bike tour to raise funds for all participating Jewish Residential Camp programs. Scholarships are also available through our From the Heart Resident Camp Scholarship Fund, which was created by Akiba Resident Camp alumni. 

If you or anyone you know is interested in supporting the From the Heart Resident Camp Scholarship Fund to help more kids get to Camp, please direct them to our Temple Akiba donation page at https://www.templeakiba.net/donate.
