We administer three types of scholarships:
Jewish Day Schools
Talmud Torah Elementary & Junior High School and Talmud Torah Preschool offer subsidies for tuition for recent immigrants and for any families who may find the tuition fees an obstacle to registering their child or children.

Jewish Summer Camp BB Riback
Camp BB Riback offers subsidies for camp tuition for families who may find the tuition fee an obstacle to registering their child or children. Jewish Family Services conducts a assessment of the family’s financial situation and makes a recommendation to the Camp on the amount of the subsidy.
