Fresh Air Fund thanks helpers

To the Editor:

This year, 43 New York City children found out once again just how special summer is in Cape Cod. Fresh Air Fund hosts, volunteers, and local supporters dedicated their time and efforts to help these inner city youngsters experience simple summertime pleasures, including afternoons of swimming, fishing at sunset, and roasting s’mores over a campfire.

None of this would be possible without Cheryll Sashin, your local Fresh Air Fund volunteer leader, who works throughout the year to make sure host families and children have the opportunity to enjoy memorable summertime experiences together. I invite you to join Cheryll Sashin and the local Fresh Air Fund committee to help spread the word about the wonderful opportunity of hosting next summer.

The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, nonprofit agency, has provided free summer vacations to more than 1.7 million New York City children from low income communities since 1877. For more information on how you can help to continue this wonderful tradition of volunteering, please call Cheryll Sashin at (508) 696-6421 or visit www.freshair.org.
