  • Fresh Air Fund needs your help

    In 2009, The Fresh Air Fund‘s Volunteer Host Family program, called Friendly Town, gave close to 5,000 New York City boys and girls, ages six to 18, free summer experiences in the country and the suburbs. Volunteer host families shared their friendship and homes up to two weeks or more in 13 Northeastern states from Virginia to Maine and Canada.

    The Fresh Air Fund relies on donations to provide memorable summers to NYC children.

    The Fresh Air Fund needs hosts for the summer of 2010.

    More than 65% of all Fresh Air children are reinvited to stay with their host family, year after year.

    Thanks to host families who open up their homes for a few weeks each summer, children growing up in New York City’s toughest neighborhoods have experienced the joys of Fresh Air experiences.

    Here are some videos about the Fresh Air Fund:

  • Jogging for Charity

    I just got an email from the organizers of the Fresh Air Fund Half Marathon in NYC.  It’s a bit far away from Toronto, but it sounds like a great cause.  If any of you can help them out, they would really appreciate it.

    “Would you like to run this year’s New York City Half-Marathon on August 16th while also helping Fresh Air Fund children? Join our Fresh Air Fund-Racers team today!

    Last summer’s NYC Half-Marathon Presented by NIKE was a huge success for The Fresh Air Fund, and we couldn’t have done it without all of our Fund-Racers! Thank you to the dedicated runners who participated through our team and to everyone who came out to support us! We raised more than $125,000 which will go directly to our free programs for NYC children.
