THE FRESH AIR FUND’S ANNUAL SPRING BENEFIT
On Wednesday, May 2, 2018, The Fresh Air Fund
hosted its Annual Spring Benefit at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in
New York City. The event welcomed 555 supporters and friends
and raised $1.7 million to benefit The Fresh Air Fund, a
nonprofit organization. The benefit honored The
Sulzberger Family and The New York Times Company. Michael
Barbaro, managing Editor and Host of The New York Times’
podcast The Daily, was the emcee.
The Fresh Air Fund, an independent,
not-for-profit agency, has provided free summer experiences
to more than 1.8 million New York City children from
low-income communities since 1877. Each summer, thousands
of children visit volunteer host families along the East
Coast and Southern Canada and at The Fund’s five overnight
camps in Fishkill, New York. Fresh Air children also
participate in year-round leadership and educational
programs. For more information, visit www.freshair.org.
