Day in the Park becomes an annual event
The Taylor Family Foundation is formed. TTFF helps support programs at Children’s Hospital, Oakland & UCSF
$56,000
1996 – 1999
TTFF’s primary focus is funding clinical programs, social programs, holiday events, activity days and summer camp for HIV/AIDS children. TTFF redefines their niche when they discover that summer camp programs are desperately needed.
In 1996 After funding a summer camp for children with HIV/AIDS, TTFF decides to build their own camp
By 2000, autism rates have increased by 200%. By 2003, TTFF is hosting three autism camps
2002 - 2008 Sarah House Infirmary opens
Additional camp buildings are constructed; a bocce court, chalk garden and the Dave Matthews Band Outdoor outdoor amphitheater with camp fire circle is built.

In 1997, with the help of East Bay Regional Park District, TTFF finds land and a partner to build a state of the art “green” camp
Ground breaks in 1997 at the future home of TTFF’s Camp Arroyo
2000
Camp opens. The total number of HIV/AIDS children has dropped to 300, so Camp Arroyo welcomes children with a variety of orphan diseases and illnesses lesser known to the greater community.
Camp sleeps 144 and includes a swimming pool, dining hall & ropes course
2010
TTFF celebrates 10 years of Camp Arroyo. TTFF and TTFF’s Camp Arroyo have served more than 40,000 children since opening its doors, providing respite to nearly 70,000 parents at no cost to these families.
