The moment you plant the seeds of tomorrow

Tamarack Camps endowment funds gives you and your family the opportunity to develop deep, multigenerational connections to the past, present and future.

Tamarack Camps Endowment Funds

An endowment is a gift that keeps on growing. When you contribute to or create a Tamarack Camps endowment fund, we invest your gift and then use a portion of the funds it generates each year. Your initial gift is preserved and will continue to bear fruit for years to come.

All gifts are important and make a difference, but Tamarack Camps endowment funds have the added benefits of:

  • Providing for the future financial security of the camp
  • Enabling us to continue offering scholarships and enhancing programs
  • Helping to maintain camp’s treasured footprint, including the continued maintenance and improvements to its property and buildings

Giving to a Tamarack Camps endowment fund is a beautiful way to establish a meaningful personal or family legacy, while also supporting transformational work in the community. Over the long term, your gift will keep growing, and it will ensure we can plant the seeds of tomorrow, deepen our roots and grow fruit worth sharing well into the future.

Your Tamarack Camps endowment fund may support a specific program that is close to your heart, or you may choose to establish a named scholarship fund. You can also direct your endowment toward the stewardship and maintenance of the camp’s facilities and infrastructure or to the camp’s greatest needs. All endowment gifts will ensure life-changing experiences for generations to come.

Debbie and Norman Trepeck

Long-time annual donors and proud Bubbie Zaydie campers, Debbie and Norman Trepeck, wanted to ensure their support had a lasting impact. Norman sent his daughters to Tamarack and is watching with pride as his grandson, Ethan, continues the journey. Debbie has fond memories of her own youth spent at Tamarack and wants to help provide for others what her parents provided for her. By recently creating an endowment fund, the Trepecks are proud that their legacy and financial support will continue for generations to come.

Brian Kepes and his wife, Fern

Past Tamarack Camps president Brian Kepes and his wife, Fern, created an endowment fund years ago. Recently, when reflecting on their Jewish values and what they wanted their legacy to be, they made a significant contribution to grow their existing fund. Fern and Brian are community leaders who have experienced Tamarack’s impact on campers and staff members — and our entire community — and it is important to them that the future of Tamarack Camps remains secure.
