American Conference of Cantors Announces Partnership with Union for Reform Judaism to Raise Funds for Campers

Cantors across North America are Singing to Raise Funds for Campers

After an incredibly successful campaign in which over $50,000 was raised for "camperships" in 2009 and 2010, members of the American Conference of Cantors will once again "sing for s'mores" to help raise funds to send Jewish kids to URJ camps during the summer of 2012.

The ACC is thrilled to roll out the new initiative in which we hope to present concerts throughout North America through Spring 2012. The new initiative seeks to raise awareness of URJ camps and the Jewish camping movement and the ACC Cantor's commitment to making this dream a reality for every child.
