Royal Family Kids Camp - now "For the Children"
For the Children
Through a five-day summer camp, Royal Family KIDS Camp of Austin fosters resiliency, self-esteem, hope and positive memories for area foster children who have experienced relational trauma. The curriculum and activities use Trust -Based Relational Intervention so that campers experience life giving activities all week.
Royal Family KIDS of Austin, Texas is one of hundreds of chapters of For The Children. Founded in 1994, RFK Austin has served more than 1300 Central Texas foster children - always confronting abuse and changing lives.
Previously, RFK had 2 program, the summer camp and a mentoring program. In late 202, they renamed to For the Children and expanded the program. Still continuing to evolve, but they are now helping provide school supplies, laptops, etc. shoes and clothes, assisting social workers and providing temporary housing.
We have been giving blankets for the camp since the year 2000. since that time, we have donated over 1,374 blankets to them.
