The Fresh Air Fund is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit agency founded in 1877. The Fund operates six sleep-away camps in New York’s Mid-Hudson Valley, places children with volunteer host families along the East Coast, and runs year-round leadership, career exploration and educational programs. The Fresh Air Fund has served more than 1.8 million children since its founding, with a goal of helping children "have new experiences, learn new skills and gain new perspectives."[2]
