The ‘1999 Circle’

At Project Avary, the circle is more than a symbol - it's the embodiment of our shared commitment to supporting one another through the challenges of parental incarceration.

Since our inception in 1999, we’ve gathered in circles to connect, share stories, and foster trust among our community members.

Our fire circles, held at every retreat, provide a safe and judgment-free space for youth to express themselves.

As a donor, you become part of this circle of care and support. Annual donations totaling $1,999 or more welcomes you to our honorary ‘1999 Circle’.

As a 1999 Circle member, you'll receive acknowledgment as a valued contributor and special Project Avary gear, including an Avary tote with camp treats. Members are also invited to join us for a dinner at summer camp, where you can circle up with Avary youth, fostering connections and creating memories.

Now, Let’s “Circle Up” and make lasting change together!
