Guest: Tracy Morley, executive director at Camp Awakening, and Joshua Chong, staff reporter The Toronto Star’s Fresh Air Fund has provided thousands of children and teens with a memorable summer holiday since 1901. Begun by former publisher Joseph Atkinson, the fund provides grants to camp organizations to subsidize fees for financially or medically vulnerable youth who otherwise couldn’t have the experience. Our readers and listeners have a large part in this, funding the effort with generous donations. To learn more about what The Star and our readers are part of, we welcome an executive director of a camp organization that has been the recipient of Fresh Air Fund funding and a Toronto Star staff reporter who had a life changing experience at camp after arriving in Canada from Singapore. How to donate: With your gift, the Fresh Air Fund can help send thousands of kids to camp. These children will get to take part in a camp experience they will cherish for a lifetime.
