A
s part of its $4 million
Jewish Camping-Jewish
Continuity Campaign
to raise money for financial aid,
capital improvements and endow-
ments, Oakland County-based
Tamarack Camps recently completed
the Grinspoon Institute for Jewish
Philanthropy's "Create Your Match 2"
challenge by raising $300,000.
The institute, founded by national
philanthropist Harold Grinspoon,
along with an allocation of the
Rebecca and Gary Sakwa Challenge
Fund of Federation's 2008 Annual
Campaign, each provided $75,000, cre-
ating a $150,000 match to Tamarack's
campaign.
The money raised has allowed
Tamarack to renovate its Butzel
Conference Center and Bargman
Senior Staff Housing at Camp Maas
in Ortonville. Future projects for the
campaign include a new staff lounge
and a trip center for the camp's hiking
and canoeing trips.
Tamarack's campaign supplements
the agency's annual "Send a Kid to
Tamarack" campaign, which is solely
designated for financial aid. For the first
time in its 107-year history, the agency
expects to allocate more than $1 million
in aid to families this summer.
