SUMMER PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN AND TEENS Grade 5 through High School

Sarah, a once-reserved fifthgrader, was hesitant about attending OU Israel's Camp Dror Program.

Born to a Jewish mother and a non-Jewish father, Sarah had limited exposure to her Jewish heritage. In our program, she discovered a welcoming community that helped her embrace her Jewish identity.

Sarah's newfound confidence and connection to her roots continue to enrich her life and the lives of her family members.

The OU offers over 25 unique teen summer programs in the US, Israel, Europe and Africa that cater to teens with different interests and backgrounds representing the complete spectrum of the Jewish community. From sports to corporate internships to work with Israeli first responders, OU summer programs provide a panorama of experiences unbounded by geography and activity. This summer had record participation at nearly 2,600 teens and children.
