WHO BENEFITS

INSTITUTIONS CARING FOR CHILDREN IN NEED, TROUBLE OR AT RISK

The current FAAFC beneficiaries are 3 American and 4 French charities all involved in helping abused, neglected or sick children heal, regain hope and confidence, and get a fresh start in life.

In the United States, they are:

! The Children’s Storefront: a private tuition-free school in Harlem providing quality education since 1966 in a warm learning environment from pre-K through the eighth grade. FAAFC currently contributes to the pre-school Kindergarten.

! The Children’s Village: a residential care and treatment center just outside New York City created in 1851 to help neglected, battered and abused children in judicial care. FAAFC currently funds family therapy programs, notably “Project I.M.P.A.C.T.” (Intervention to Maintain Parents and Children Together) to help reintegrate the children back into a safe home life, and expand visitation and fatherhood programs.

! Kips Bay Boys and Girls Club: an after-school activity center founded in 1915 in the Bronx. At the Club Houses, children and teenagers, who might otherwise be out in the streets, are engaged in a variety of activities ranging from sports, music and dance to educational help and counseling. FAAFC currently participates in the expansion of new facilities with a focus on programs for new immigrants.

In France, the beneficiaries are:

! France Parrainages: it was established in 1947 as the Centre Français de Protection de l’Enfance. FAAFC participates in expanding local Sponsoring, a unique program designed to pair up children growing up in dysfunctional families with a volunteer part-time host family, who receives no financial reward.

! La Société de Charité Maternelle de Paris, an organization created in 1784 to provide emergency help to families in need. FAAFC helps the, “Centre de Cardiologie Infantile et de Pédiatrie des Côtes”, acquire specialized medical and technical equipment and also supports milk and diaper distribution at their 14th arrondissement Center for new Mothers.

! A.L.P.C.: an association that fights social exclusion of deaf children by making oral and written French language accessible.

! Tête en l’Air: a parents association that counsels families whose children have been operated and monitored in Neurosurgery.

Representatives from the American charities are with us tonight.
