Here are some of our favorites with their links:
Bridges – Supporting local women escaping from abusive situations, or dealing with the effects of abuse. Learn more at: http://www.bridgesnh.org
Make-A-Wish – Yes, a national organization, but the local branch helps children right here. We have been privileged to help them fulfill four wishes: two pool tables and two hot tubs. They are incredibly professional, handle every detail, and always treat the entire family with the utmost respect. Learn more at: http://newhampshire.wish.org
High Hopes – Our own local New Hampshire group is similar to Mark-A-Wish, with a few differences:
- All volunteer staff (low overhead)
- No national money – everything is local
- Wish recipients do not have to be terminally ill. We’ve helped them with two hot tubs. For some medical conditions, that hot tub can make a huge difference in the life of a child and their family for many, many years.
Meeting with a mother whose young child will need constant care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for her entire life, is an experience that I will never forget. Learn more at: http://www.highhopesnh.org
