More $1,000 Camp Grants Available!

More $1,000 Camp Grants Available! Great news – summer’s getting closer and we have additional funding to provide $1,000 grants to first-time campers at over 100 Jewish sleepaway camps across the country, from traditional camps to new options such as sports specialty camps, outdoor adventure and arts programs in NYC. Many families have deferred summer plans due to the economy and other reasons, and may feel challenged by the expense of camp. Even if a family has already chosen a Jewish camp, we want to give them a grant as well! Grants are non-needs based, supplemental to synagogue incentives or camp scholarships. Our goal is to benefit as many children of the MetroWest community as possible, as their experiences will prompt others to explore Jewish overnight camp. Visit www.onehappycamper.org for details and to apply.
Mazal Tov To The Leights On Being Honored By The Cares Foundation

Ten years ago TSTI member Kelly Leight founded CARES, the Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Research Foundation in order to bring together scientific and medical experts as well as advocates and families in the CAH (Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia) community. For many years Kelly was also the Executive Director of the Foundation.
Since then CARES has identified over 24 million Americans who are carriers of some form of CAH.
Now Kelly, Adam, Josh and Alyssa are being honored by the CARES Foundation at their Everyone Cares Gala on March 18th. WE, their TSTI Family Wish them a huge Mazal Tov on this honor.
