Camp JRF Book Shelf project a success!

The new siddurim arrive at campThe new siddurim arrive at campThe effort to provide prayer books to Camp JRF has been achieved. Generous donations from across North America have provided over 200 sets (daily and Shabbat siddurim) of Kol Haneshamah to Camp JRF. The books arrived in time for opening day of camp.

As part of the JRF "Book Shelf" program, donors provided one set of Kol Haneshamah (the Shabbat and daily prayer book) for a gift of $50, and JRF covered shipping. The set retails for $57. For a minimum donation of $100, two or more sets included personalized dedication bookplates in memory of or in honor of a loved one or an occasion.

The siddurim dedicated through this appeal will permanently reside at Camp JRF. This support sends a special message of caring to the campers - one the kids note every week of camp as they begin prayers in the outdoor sanctuary that they built themselves.
