This is a public service announcement concerning the Fresh Air Fund, an independent, not-for-profit agency, that has provided free summer vacations to more than 1.7 million New York City children from low-income communities since 1877. From now until June 30th, any gift you make to The Fresh Air Fund will be matched dollar for dollar by a group of generous donors.

They also need host families in the Northeast and portions of Canada (see link for details).

For more information, see the Fresh Air website.

Nearly 10,000 New York City children enjoy free Fresh Air Fund programs annually. In 2008, close to 5,000 children visited volunteer host families in suburbs and small town communities across 13 states from Virginia to Maine and Canada. 3,000 children also attended five Fresh Air camps on a 2,300-acre site in Fishkill, New York. The Fund's year-round camping program serves an additional 2,000 young people each year.
