About
Camp Ben Frankel is a coed, overnight, summer camp for Jewish children and teens located in Carbondale, IL. Since 1949, our campers have developed lifelong friendships and deep connections to Judaism and Israel. With enrollment limited to only 100 campers, children enjoy a small, personal community with lots of individual attention. Established as a program of the Jewish Federation of Southern Illinois, Southeast Missouri and Western Kentucky, for almost 70 years Camp Ben Frankel has touched the lives of thousands of Jewish children. In 2018 Camp Ben Frankel grew enrollment in two key demographics; children from our service area and children from self-identified small Jewish communities. Also, achieving a camper return rate of 86%. After a summer at Camp Ben Frankel, parents reported a pronounced difference in their child's self-confidence, Jewish identity, and connection to other Jewish children.
