As of January 1, 2024, the Beth Longwell Foundation will no longer be accepting donations
or grant applications. We wish to thank all of our supporters for their past generosity.


After 17 meaningful years, the Beth Longwell Foundation is winding down. A heartfelt “Thank You” to all of our supporters over this time period. In Partnership with Kara, the BLF has established a Scholarship in Beth’s name. Please consider a gift to the Camp Kara Beth Levitas Longwell Sponsorship Fund. Your generosity will help bring care, connection and hope to children and teens both now and into the future.



The Beth Longwell Foundation positively impacted the lives of children through support of charities and organizations in the areas of childhood education, non-smoking lung cancer research, and grief support for children who have lost a parent.

About Beth

On August 20, 2007, Beth Levitas Longwell lost her battle with lung cancer. Diagnosed on June 5th, just days after her 39th birthday, Beth soon learned that the cancer had already progressed to Stage 4. Always the optimist, Beth confronted the realities of her terrible illness for the next 11 weeks, modeling unimaginable strength and inspiration for all those around her.

Beth was an incredibly intelligent woman who loved learning and shared this love with all whom she encountered. A voracious reader and learner, she actively pursued and valued self-edification her entire life.  She understood the importance of educating others. To pursue her personal goals and to help others, Beth chose a career in teaching.
