Meet Our Interim Director

SUSIE CHARENDOFF

 

Susie joins the Ramah Berkshires family with an invaluable blend of 25 years of organizational leadership experience, entrepreneurial vision, and a passion for the power of Jewish camping to nurture and transform children’s lives. Not to be overshadowed by her corporate experience, Susie’s lifelong connection to Jewish camping began as a seven-year-old camper, continuing on as staff in the same Jewish overnight camp. When her children were younger, Susie spent five summers serving in a variety of roles at Camp Ramah Nyack (2003-2008), ultimately joining the leadership team as Program Director where she was responsible for the planning and execution of programming for hundreds of campers. This past summer, Susie was responsible for camper care and staff development for the oldest edot at Camp Ramah Darom.

In addition to her camp experiences, Susie’s deep experience growing startups and transforming businesses, coupled with her expertise in consulting, strategy, and human resources, will be a tremendous asset to help move Ramah Berkshires forward to next summer.
