NEW YORK, Aug. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- During the COVID Crisis, The American Foundation of Savoy Orders (Savoy Foundation), in keeping with its "Chivalry for Children's Causes™" mission, granted $130,000, raised through its 2019 "Ballo di Savoia" Gala in New York for The New York Foundling's Summer Camp Program for foster care children. The Savoy Foundation contribution will fund $50,000 for the Foundling's 2020 on-line summer camp at home program because of COVID health restrictions and $80,000 for the Foundling's prospective 2021 live outdoor summer camp. CEO and President Bill Baccaglini and Development Vice President Kirkley Strand of the New York Foundling accepted the grant check on August 19, 2020 from Savoy Foundation President Joseph Sciame on behalf of the Board at the New York Foundling headquarters.

This year's extra challenges, brought on by the COVID crisis, have brought about the cancellation of The New York Foundling's outdoor overnight, summer camp program. The Savoy Foundation, as a supporting partner, has stepped in to fund $50,000 for a summer camp at-home experience with an on-line platform of high-quality, interactive camp-themed programming supervised by the Foundling's veteran Camp Felix staff members throughout the month of August. The virtual camp experience will feature 2-3 hours of daily activities, including fitness, yoga, arts and crafts, theatre and dance, STEM workshops, musical performances, and more. Virtual campers can participate in the entire program start to finish, or they can choose select weeks, days, or activities based on their interests.

For the extra challenges brought on by the COVID crisis, the Savoy Foundation has stepped in to provide extra support for The New York Foundling's summer camp at-home program.

Post this

The summer camp at home program has provided each "camper" with a care package, including a t-shirt, journal, set of headphones, snacks, coloring and activity books and supplies, arts and crafts supplies, and a frisbee. Each day will still start with the Morning Circle where campers and staff sing songs and talk about daily and weekly goals and challenges. "We can't give out a Cleanest Cabin Award this year, so instead campers have been competing within their own homes to see who can complete the most household chores—things like dusting, vacuuming, doing the dishes, or helping their parent/guardian with dinner."

The balance of the Savoy Foundation $80,000 grant to The New York Foundling is reserved for their projected 2021 real summer camp experience in their outdoor overnight camp facilities in upstate New York.
