Honoring Len Keilin at 80

As Len Keilin prepares to celebrate his 80th birthday (April 23rd), we pause to honor a man whose leadership helped shape Beber Camp during some of its most formative years.

As we celebrate Len’s 80th birthday, we invite our community to honor him in a lasting way. Donations made in Len Keilin’s honor will support the construction of Beber Camp’s new pickleball courts, spaces that will bring campers together, build community, and create joy for years to come.

Happy 80th Birthday, Len. Thank you for planting seeds that continue to grow.

Introducing the Beber Camp Leadership Internship Progam

We’re excited to launch our new internship designed to bridge the gap between camp and career, giving emerging professionals meaningful, hands-on experience within a mission-driven organization.

As part of the program, we’re seeking mentors who are passionate about developing the next generation of Jewish leaders. If you’re interested in supporting interns through guidance, coaching, and professional insight, we’d love to hear from you!

Furthermore, we are also still recruiting for a Development and Alumni Engagement Intern as part of this program. If you know someone who may be interested, please get them to email Michael Wax at michael@bebercamp.com.

Does your employer offer company matching?

Many companies nowadays offer employees the opportunity to double, or even triple, their donations to nonprofit organizations through matching gift programs. This means your generosity to Beber Camp could go even further at no additional cost to you.

Be sure to speak with your HR department or check your company’s benefits portal to learn whether your employer offers a matching gift program and how you can take advantage of it to increase the impact of your gift to Beber.
