Camp Judaea is currently raising funds to upgrade the 60 year old aging facility. The 18 million dollar Capital Campaign includes the renovation of the old dining hall converting it into the future Israel Culture Center, the expansion and renovation of the current dining hall, the construction of 22 new camper cabins, a new Visual Arts Center, Nature Center and the renovation of the current Beit Ha’am (theater building). The upgrades and additions will ensure that Camp Judaea will be around for the future and continue to be a vital Jewish identity building program for all of its campers and staff members.
We are extremely grateful to the Pottruck Family for their generous support our program. Their contribution will go towards the renovation of the current dining hall/kitchen, phase 1 of the Israel Culture Center, and scholarship. Pictured above is Teddy Pottruck receiving a proclamation of “Teddy Pottruck Day” at Camp Judaea. In addition, she received hundreds of camper written notes thanking her for her family’s generosity. Although Teddy and the Pottruck Family have not seen Camp Judaea yet, we hope to host her and her children in the near future.
If your family is interested in investing in the children of Camp Judaea, please contact our office to hear about the naming opportunities. Together, you and I can change the world, one camper at a time.
