Our mission is to enrich and inspire the lives of campers and staff by strengthening Jewish identity and connection while teaching Jewish knowledge and values through sports.
Each year, raising $100,000 ensures that every child who wants to attend 6 Points Sports Academy can come enjoy a summer to develop and improve their athletic skills, build self-confidence, and create lasting friendships. These immersive experiences happen in a diverse, warm, inclusive environment surrounded by fun and joyful Judaism. But it takes the whole community to make that happen.
We need YOUR help!
The Harold Grinspoon Foundation has generously created the All Together Now 2022 matching grant to help bring more kids to camp. For every $2 you donate today, the HGF will match $1. This will have a tremendous impact on our camp community.

Full Transparency!
- The rising cost of everything these days has directly affected our camp families in many ways- and we must increase our Scholarship Fund to give them the support they need to attend camp. Please consider making an impactful gift by clicking here.
- At 6 Points Sports Academy we have very high standards. Our top-quality professional coaches and staff is a high priority for our program.
Many of our coaches are college level and are highly trained in both their athletic specialty but also in their approach to our campers. The expertise needed from our staff to ensure each unique camper is successful, is something we value tremendously, and this has affected our overall camp expenses. Please consider donating here to support our general operating needs and staff engagement.

Tribute Gifts in Honor of Camp Staff
The URJ has a policy that prohibits tipping our camp staff. We ask that you please adhere to this policy and consider donating to the Scholarship Fund in honor of your camper’s counselors and mentors. We will notify them of this special tribute. You may include a message which we will share with your honoree.
