About this organization

About
Paid 50% of the operating costs of providing 150-200 at risk or foster care children a (2-3) week sleep away camp experience over a 4 week camp session. In addition to Camp Felix overnight camp, Felix has expanded its mission to include three additional programs to support New York City youth's in the foster care system: Beyond Camp, Secret Santa and Felix Friendship Circle. Beyond Camp provides mini-grants to New York City youth's in foster care, allowing them to follow their dreams through extracurricular activities and classes throughout the school year. Secret Santa provides holiday gift cards to hundreds of older youth in foster care, a population often overlooked.
