“We are honored to be selected as a recipient of a grant from the Halton Foundation and thank them for their support of research! This support will allow us to bring together an interdisciplinary team of scientists from Fordham University and the New York City College of Technology with the overarching goal of understanding and improving indoor air quality. The grant will also support the participation of undergraduate STEM majors in our research and will help to raise awareness of the importance of indoor air quality in the undergraduate science curriculum at our institutions.”

“We are humbled and honored to have been selected to receive the Halton Foundation’s first gift. This support and your desire to incorporate asthma education as another fun component of a child’s summer camp experience is going to produce lifelong benefits. We look forward to working with you and the Halton Team to provide a great week of camp during the summer of 2011. Thank you again for the support of our program and the seriously ill children we serve.” 

Roger F. Murtie, President of the Center for Courageous Kids.

“We are honored to have been selected by the Halton Foundation as a recipient of their generous grant. We appreciate their acknowledgment of the value of our work and intend to make them proud of their confidence in us. We believe in the conservation of nature, improving people’s health, and transforming their lives, one clean cookstove at a time. With the help of wonderful donors like the Halton Foundation we will be able to expand our work in the Trans Himalayan Region.”

 ” We are honoured to have been selected by the Halton Foundation as a recipient of their generous grant. With this support, we have been able to launch and carry out the full spectrum of activities on ventilation and air conditioning systems in hospital patients’ rooms, from research to promotional and educational work. In the long term, the results of the project will contribute to raising awareness of doctors and medical staff about the significance of the ventilation system and, consequently, help to improve the indoor environmental conditions in which the patient’s recovery process is taking place.”
