For only child Chase, 21, Nevaeh is like a sister. Indeed, the Fresh Air Fund has had a significant impact on Chase. Next week, she will be greeting the Fresh Air Fund kids as they arrive in West Chester for a week with their host families. Jennifer Nahm, co-chair of the Harrisburg, Hershey and Palmyra chapter of Friendly Towns and a host mother herself, said there are communities of host families between Canada and North Carolina.

Fresh Air Fund also holds outreach events in the community. Kids must apply to the program and can receive support from the outreach team in New York. Host families undergo a rigorous screening process. The interviews are great, but the editing has been disappointing. Segment changes are choppy and episodes often end mid-sentence.

The Ken Burns segment of March 15 was a particular disappointment, ending less than 10 minutes into the episode. I love the show! I just hope the editing improves. I love Terri Gross, the way she engages her audience and asks deep meaningful questions of her subject which in turn teaches me something every day when I rush to my car to eat my lunch and listen to another great interview.
