American Jewish Summer Camps Offer Israeli Teens a Break from Pressures at Home
This past summer, 770 teens from the Gaza Envelope attended camps as part of Campers2Gether, a Jewish Agency initiative launched in 2024. The program provides Israeli teens with a much-needed respite from the ongoing war and daily pressures they face.
The Jewish Agency collaborates with North American camps and Jewish federations to create this unique opportunity, offering these young individuals a safe and supportive environment away from the conflict.
