Since 1995, we have served over 2,000 youth across all programs. Camp Dogwood is now serving the second generation of campers.
Camp Dogwood maintains an intensive 1:3 counselor-to-camper ratio to ensure personal attention and growth.
For over 25 years, The AnBryce Foundation has supported initiatives for first-generation student access to higher education.
We continually evaluate and refine our offerings, including enhancements to SAIL and Saturday Institute, and logistical improvements.
The AnBryce Foundation Wellness Team is dedicated to supporting participants and their families by providing supplemental emotional health and wellness services. Our goal is to promote emotional well-being through educational and emotional growth consultations, crisis assistance, suggested interventions, advocacy, and access to community resources. Whether you need individual or family support, guidance in promoting student emotional wellness, or referrals to additional services, we are here to help.
AnBryce has been heaven-sent! This is Zoey’s second year attending Camp Dogwood and her third year participating in the Saturday Institute. Both programs have helped her develop strong social skills and greater confidence. Without Camp Dogwood, Zoey would never have had the opportunity to spend two unforgettable weeks surrounded by the breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains — immersed in nature, hearing its peaceful sounds, and creating lasting memories with new friends. We are grateful.
It was pretty cool being able to do things like work on a capstone project or work on a business plan. Those are things that I don’t necessarily think I would have done if I wasn’t a STEP for those three summers. So definitely that has played a role in where I am today and the knowledge that I have today or even my ability to help my younger sisters before they got to the ages where they could even do things like STEP.
Being part of the AnBryce undergraduate scholars initiative at NYU has instilled in me the desire to give back. I recognize that I have made it to this point in my career due to the mentoring of the Foundation’s co-founders and other mentors that I have gained through the AnBryce network. For those of you considering participation in AnBryce, I would say, do it! Taking part in the AnBryce programs can be life-changing.
Countless alumni echo their sentiment. Campers leave with new skills, mentors return as volunteers, and scholars become leaders in their fields.
