We are committed to ensuring that no child is denied a Jewish summer experience at 6 Points Sports Academy.
6 Points is dedicated to working in conjunction with families and their home congregations to make a summer camp experience possible for families in need of assistance. When thinking about sending your child to camp, we recommend you follow the following three steps. We encourage you to explore all scholarship options.
1. Check to see if your are eligible for the FJC One Happy Camper Grant. This is not needs based for all first (and sometimes second year) campers. If you still need additional financial assistance, follow the steps below.
2. Determine if the Jewish Federation in your area has additional financial opportunities. Additionally, reach out to your local congregation, for many of them have funds as well.
3. Apply to our internal Earl Ferguson Scholarship Fund.
Please email our office or call 561-208-1650 to discuss your financial assistance questions.
