Toby and Seth Hanover Youth Scholarship For Camp and Summer Programs
ATTENTION: PARENTS WITH CHILDREN IN TEMPLE SHAARI EMETH’S RELIGIOUS SCHOOL
Would you like to give your child the gift of amazing Jewish memories? Do you want to create a love of Judaism that will last a lifetime?
Jewish Camp, Jewish Teen Travel or Jewish Summer Experiences are the best way to do this and Temple Shaari Emeth is ready to help you give this gift to your children!!
Temple Shaari Emeth believes that our youth are our future, and so, we offer our Temple’s youth both merit awards and need scholarships to send children to Jewish summer programs including NFTY in Israel, Camp Harlam, Six Points Academies and Mitzvah Corps. Studies have proven that children who have Jewish summer experiences have stronger Jewish identities as adults, and so we give out nearly $10,000 annually to make sure that no child is denied Jewish summer camp because of finances.
ALL THAT WE REQUIRE IS THAT YOUR CHILD:
Be enrolled and attend Temple Shaari Emeth’s Religious School.
Be registered for summer camp BEFORE you submit your Youth Scholarship Application.
AND THAT PARENTS:
Are members in good standing of Temple Shaari Emeth at the time the summer program begins.
Volunteer to help in the preparation and distribution of the Shalach Manot Fundraiser.
Please mark your calendars for February 20th, 6:00 p.m. for YOU and your child to participate in packing the shalach manot bags for the fundraiser, and please also mark your calendar for March 1st at 9:30 a.m. to make deliveries. For the March 1st date, we need parents to make deliveries. Feel free to bring your child to assist with the delivery process.
The completed Youth Scholarship Application must be received by ***January 10, 2020***.
We will notify you by the end of January 2020 when the decision for your child’s scholarship is determined. We look forward to receiving your completed Youth Scholarship Application.
