Rocker Family Scholarship Program
The Federation 2025 Scholarship Application will open November 1. Please check back in mid-October for 2025 guidelines. If you are seeking an overnight camp for 2025 and cost is a challenge, please contact us to discuss options.
The Rocker Family Overnight Camp Scholarship program seeks to enable campers from Greater MetroWest NJ families with financial need, who may not otherwise attend Jewish overnight camp, to be able to do so. Scholarships are for families with Adjusted Gross Income up to $200,000 and/or facing extenuating circumstances. Preference is given to children for whom Jewish camp is their primary immersive Jewish experience who attend the camps listed in the guidelines. The process is confidential.
Please contact Gerri Russo for confidential scholarship information and camp guidance via email or (973) 929-2972. The 2025 guidelines will be available in mid-October, including the potential scholarship award amounts, which should be reviewed before applying. You may review the 2024 guidelines for reference in the meantime.
There is also scholarship funding available through specific camps. Consider working at camp to help offset the cost of camp. Please also check with your synagogue (if applicable) about potential financial assistance for Jewish camp.
