(Courtesy of NJY Camps) NJY Camps, the world’s largest Jewish camp group, serving over 3,000 children annually, is celebrating the 100th anniversary of Camp Nah-Jee-Wah.

At an event marking the centennial, many of the camp’s current women leaders as well as those who served decades ago, were recognized, including longtime camp supporter Paula Gottesman who was honored for her contribution to the Gottesman Gesher campaign. This campaign involves a $2 million matching grant that will help the camps thrive and continue their mission. Her support of NJY Camps has allowed the organization to improve its facilities, expand its programs, and provide scholarships to children who may not have had the opportunity to experience the magic of summer camp otherwise. Her contribution has enabled NJY Camps to reach a wider audience, ensuring that children from diverse backgrounds can benefit from the transformative power of camp.
