AOP gives children first time experiences such as a fresh view of the world from a week long Summer Camp experience.  They are introduced to:  

·  a well structured schedule breakfast to bedtime 

·  a wide variety of activities 

·  A main focus throughout the week on academics 

We work closely with the children's school to reassure their performance in their studies.  The children we help are selected based on needs by a guidance counselor in the New York City and New Jersey public school system in conjunction with AOP representatives. 

We are currently in the process of expanding our Anthony of Padua programming and outreach, and are eager to share some of our future goals and ideas with you!  To do so, we will be updating our website, and sending out newsletters which will encompass upcoming fundraising events, how you can get more involved to help Anthony of Padua, and spread the word about this great organization.

Anthony of Padua Gifts for Children, Inc. (AOP) is a not for profit, non-denominational organization established in 1986.
