Hosting a New York City Child

In my local paper today, I found out aobut an organization called Fresh Air Fund. This group has a Friendly Town program where hosts from rural and suburban areas host an inner-city child for two weeks in their home during the summer. You can pick the age and gender of the child. The website says that 65% of the children are invited back the following year by the host families. This is a great opportunity to make a difference in the lives of a child and of your own family. Check out the website and see if you are in an area eligible to participate.

We will keep you posted on the progress of this adventure.
