The Field Trip Fund is a growing nonprofit started by a young man named Christian Hughes. Christian saw that some schools had cut back field trips almost entirely due to lack of funding. He noticed this was particularly a problem in lower economic school districts.
Remembering the impact that field trips had on him as a child, he devoted himself making a difference in the lives of these kids. He aims to help underprivileged children experience learning outside the classroom by raising awareness and funding for schools to offer transportation, money for lunches, admission, and guest leaders and speakers.
