Small Communities Incentive Program

We're jumping with joy!

Camp Tavor is thrilled to bring you this opportunity to bring your kids to camp in 2022 AND 2023! 

The Small Communities Incentive Program is allowing us to bring not one, but two years of funding to our new campers from eligible communities throughout the country.

​

When you register your camper for a 3-week program or longer you will receive up to $1500 for tuition this summer and a guaranteed amount of up to $1500 for tuition for summer 2023.

​

New campers for summer 2022 in a program over 19-days are also eligible for the $1,000 One Happy Camper grant.  That means a potential savings of up to $2500 for summer 2022.

Funds are limited and will be awarded on a first-come first-serve basis.

Eligibility FAQs

What if I was a new camper registered in 2021 but in a shorter-length program?

If you live in an eligible city and your camper was registerd in 2021 in Taste of Tavor or Explore Tavor they could be eligible. Please contact Randy@camptavor.org for more.



If a family already has one camper in camp, can they access this for a sibling who is a first-time camper?

Yes!



If a new family has multiple children, can each camper receive the funding?

Yes!



Who is Eligible for the SCI Program?

The Small Communities Incentive Program is for families who live in communities with a Jewish population of 10,000 or less and apply to new campers registering for Summer 2022. Campers must be entering 4th grade up to 10th grade in the 2022/2023 school year, and registering for a program that is 3-weeks long or longer.



Can I still apply for the One Happy Camper grant?

YES! And we encourage you to. New campers in program sessions of 19-days or longer are eligible for up to $1,000. That means with this new grant you could receive up to $2,500 off your first year at Camp Tavor. If you are a returning camper from Explore Tavor you are only eligible for the One Happy Camper Grant if you did not already use it Summer 2021.



Does this work with the Refer-A-Friend program?

YES! If it is your first summer at Camp Tavor and you Refer-A-Friend and are both in an eligible community you will not only receive the SCI grant but you will also recerive $180 each off tuition. If you're a returning family you will still both receive the $180 Refer-A-Friend bonus off tuition. But only the NEW family is eligible for the SCI grant.



Do I need to apply for the Camp Tavor Scholarship Fund as well?

Yes. In order to recieve money from the Small Communities Incentive you will also need to apply for the Camp Tavor Scholarship Fund. The money awarded through the incentive will be based in part on what you can contribute and what the camp scholarship can contribute. You will recieve funding from the incentive, but the amount will be determined by need.
