National Ramah Commission

The National Ramah Commission is the camping arm of Conservative Judaism, impacting over 11,500 campers and staff every summer through its ten overnight camps, five day camps, and programs in Israel. Immersed in Jewish living and dynamic programming, campers at Ramah engage in traditional camp activities while receiving informal Jewish education. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in the United States, this organization is guided by seven core values, including self-esteem, character development, and Zionism. With a $600.00K grant investment from the Jim Joseph Foundation in September 2017, Ramah aims to instill a love for Judaism, the Jewish people, Israel, and the outdoors in its campers and staff, making a significant impact on the community and Jewish identity.
