Shlichim Hosts Needed: Ramah Day Camp Greater DC is looking for home hosts for our summer 2021 mishlachat.  We are excited to bring 8+ summer shlichim to camp this year.  Many are shomer(et) Shabbat & kashrut and would love to stay with a family who does the same. You do not need to be a Ramah family to host, just someone who wants to open their homes to an amazing Israeli who is here to spread the joy of being from Israel. Host dates are June 17-August 15^th and we are looking for people willing to make a 4-8 week commitment. For more information, please email Camp Director, Rabbi Jill Levy at rabbijill@campramahne.org.
