A key figure in the long tradition of the Christian Association is one of our former Executive Directors, Dana How. Dana How served the Christian Association from 1928 to 1958 and is predominately remembered for his support and oversight of the CA’s Green Lane camps. His legacy lives on through the dedicated work of a team of University of Pennsylvania/CA/Green Lane Camp alumni that serve on the Dana G. How Social Service Fund of the Philadelphia Foundation. This fund has supported our Peacemaking Through the Arts program for several years and have now committed to supporting an expansion to this program, Dana How Mentors. The goal of this expansion is to develop a high school mentoring program that would celebrate more of the spirit of the camp experiences they feel Dana How should fund. The program will offer Penn students opportunities for increased interaction with Philadelphia children over a longer period of time and would include some camp-like experiences.
