We've been busy this summer! Read more about what's happening around the Foundation.
We view giving as an essential part of transformation and renewal. When someone makes a contribution, we hope it is a thoughtful, prayerful, and joyful experience. Your gifts, without a doubt, help touch and change lives.
Our financial model relies primarily on our endowment as the source of our operating expenses, supplemented by program revenues from our three fee-based programs. The endowment has been growing since the Foundation’s inception in the early 1930s, with greater growth in recent years due to the ongoing generosity of the Butt family. These gifts, combined with support from donors and capital campaigns, enable our programs to grow and thrive.
Outdoor School hosted 16 schools, serving a total of 1,608 students this year.
LLYC welcomed 1,511 campers from roughly 1,200 different households for its five summer sessions.
Laity Lodge hosted 1,774 guests this year through 41 retreats, along with 110 people at the Quiet House.
23,920 people from a variety of backgrounds came through Foundation Camp in 2018.
