Unfortunately, due to atypically low registration numbers, it is with deep regret that the Kaufman Interfaith Institute has made the decision to cancel our 2024 Interfaith Service Day Camp. We have every hope of seeing you all again in a year's time for the 2025 Camp.
For another opportunity to get your middle and high school students engaged in the meantime, our Kaufman Interfaith Leadership Scholars cohort will pick up again in the Fall.
