#friendly towns program

On February 7th at the annual Friendly Towns Conference in New York City, Pamela Hubbard reunited with her former Fresh Air child, Corey, and his six year old son, Corey Jr. Corey visited the Hubbards for the first time in 1995 and has been in touch ever since. Corey is now in the Navy and will deploy soon to the Middle East. “It has been three and a half years since I have seen Corey and his son. It was wonderful reconnecting with him, and we had lots to talk about. He has matured so much over the last three years. I am very proud of him,” said Pamela.

Patty was recently honored at the 2016 annual Friendly Towns Conference at the Marriot Marquis Hotel in New York City. While there, she was reunited with her former Fresh Air child, Donnalese, and was presented with an award for her dedication by her current Fresh Air child, Krystie. “It certainly doesn’t feel like fifty years,” Patty said in an interview. “You never step back and realize all that you’ve done.”
