This Thankful Thursday, we are incredibly grateful for the members of the Camp Coleman Leaders Council—a dedicated group of former Camp Committee Chairs whose wisdom, experience, and unwavering love for Camp Coleman continue to strengthen our community.
The Leaders Council serves as a valuable resource for camp leadership. Amy, our year-round team, and current members of the Camp Committee regularly seek their advice, perspective, and support. Their guidance has helped Camp Coleman navigate both opportunities and challenges, including playing an invaluable role during the acquisition of the additional property adjoining our campus. Their deep knowledge of Camp Coleman and commitment to its future help ensure that our beloved home away from home remains strong for generations to come.
Recently, when we approached the Leaders Council about helping us build excitement and momentum for our Fill My Bunk Campaign, several members immediately stepped forward with an extraordinary act of generosity. Together, Robyn and Jay Gellman, Myra and Mark Wolfson, Wendy and Raymond Capeluto, and Lauren and Todd Gordon created a $6,000 matching gift challenge to inspire our community and help more campers experience the magic of Camp Coleman.
Thanks to the generosity of our Coleman community, we have already raised $55,000 toward our $60,000 Fill My Bunk goal. With the campaign continuing through June 7, 2026, we are within reach of not only meeting our goal but surpassing it if we can fully unlock this generous $6,000 match.
There is still time to join these incredible leaders and make a gift that helps fill our bunks with more campers, more laughter, more fun, and more memories. Every gift, no matter the size, helps ensure that more children can experience the friendships, confidence, Jewish identity, and lifelong memories that Camp Coleman provides.
To the members of our Leaders Council, thank you for your leadership, your guidance, your generosity, and your belief in Camp Coleman. Your continued commitment helps ensure that the Coleman magic remains strong today and for generations to come.
We are truly THANKFUL for you. 💙
P.S. Thanks to our Leaders Council Match, every gift made through June 7 will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $6,000! Help us finish strong and Fill My Bunk!
