Ormsby Hill fosters urban boys into rural life
Ten underprivileged youths from urban centers live year round at Ormsby Hill Manchester under Mr and Mrs William M Martin. The program funds and staffing come from the Isham Hardyman trust established years ago to aid city youths. The residents, ages 12 to 17, attend local schools and churches, work at local inns, save for college, and participate in sports music and community activities.
