Jewish summer program expansion and activities

Overview

Jewish summer programs for boys have seen growth and expanded programming across the United States and Ukraine.

In the United States, the CKids network of Chabad-affiliated overnight camps reported a nearly 40% increase in enrollment, serving approximately 800 children from 17 states and three other countries. This growth was supported by expanded scholarship funding from various philanthropists. Additionally, the Yeshivas Kayitz Program opened a new large-scale, all-weather sports pavilion to enhance recreational opportunities. In Boro Park, a Chabad Expo was held for over 150 campers to showcase Jewish holiday traditions.

In Ukraine, the YEKA boys’ summer program conducted its largest season to date in the Carpathian Mountains. The 21-day program hosted more than 160 children from over 20 different cities and villages, focusing on religious studies and personal growth for children affected by the ongoing regional crisis.
