For more than 30 years, OSRUI’s Etgar Tower has inspired campers to climb higher, conquer fears, and discover strength they didn’t know they had.

After decades of Torah readings from the top, cheers from below, and thousands of climbs, it’s time to rebuild this structure for the next generation.

The total cost of the new Etgar Tower is $180,000, and this Giving Tuesday, we’re taking the first step toward that goal by raising $25,000.

Etgar means challenge in Hebrew — and at OSRUI, challenge is how we grow. Join us as we take on this next climb together.

Donate on Giving Tuesday and YOU will receive a piece of the original Tower, engraved in our Maker's Space

The new Etgar will look and feel like the tower we know so well — but with even more opportunities to climb. You’ll see all your favorite elements, plus new routes and auto-belay systems that will allow even more campers to get on the tower all summer long.
