Research has shown that attending a Jewish summer camp helps to strengthen a youngster’s long-term Jewish identity and involvement in the Jewish community. Unfortunately, summer camp is a luxury for many families in our area.

The Joan and Ben Zinbarg Camp – Schoke Jewish Family Service Scholarship Fund was established to make summer camp a reality. Financial assistance is available for eligible families from Stamford, Westport, Bridgeport, and Upper Fairfield County who are looking for rewarding Jewish summer experiences for their children.
