Camp Amichai

A warm and enriching camp experience since 2010

In 2010, with backing from Tlalim Educational Experiences in Israel and World Bnei Akiva, Ilan Oz founded Camp Amichai to give our Olim children and their Israeli friends the unique camp experience we grew up with.

Our vision is to bring together the best of camp experiences from around the world: the ruach, Zionism, friendships and joy of connecting to our Judaism, and bring it all to life in Israel, where it was always meant to be.

Summer after summer, we offer a warm, safe, happy and enriching camp experience that hundreds of campers call their home away from home.

Since 2010, we have:

  • Provided enriching and unforgettable summer experiences.
  • Trained over a thousand young leaders who continue to make an impact on Israeli society wherever they go.
  • Built an inspiring alumni community of youth movement and community leaders, high-ranking soldiers, talented business leaders and dedicated Torah educators.
  • Educated, entertained, loved, supported and inspired thousands of campers, helping them grow.
  • Added programs for younger and older campers to meet the growing demand for Amichai’s quality programming.
  • Continue to miss five of our finest alumni who, as brave soldiers, fought, saved lives and gave their lives al Kiddush Hashem in the wars of Israel. We continue to teach their midot and keep their legacies alive.
  • Danced at many weddings of campers and staff who met at Camp Amichai.
  • Built a strong network of parents and alumni who have become friends and enthusiastic supporters.

And so much more!
