2026 Goals:
Every day, our life-changing programs provide hope, healing and empowerment to New Hampshire neighbors facing life’s toughest challenges. Grounded in 80 years of service, we address many of the state’s most urgent issues: poverty, food insecurity, mental health struggles, homelessness, social isolation, aging, unsafe environments for children, and more recently, access to affordable housing. Whether it’s a mother and baby no longer spending cold nights in a cramped car, a veteran overcoming trauma that once held him back, or a family smiling with relief that they have access to life’s basic needs, we meet people where they are – restoring stability, dignity and self-sufficiency so they can create the brighter future they deserve. We proudly serve individuals and families from all backgrounds and beliefs.
Fundraising Events:
2026 is packed with exciting events for all ages! Join us on Saturday, February 14 for our Sweetheart Ball, featuring an evening of romance, gourmet dining, dancing and plenty of entertainment – perfect for singles and couples alike! Additionally, our Liberty House program will host its annual Fore the Veterans Golf Tournament on Friday, June 26 and its Veterans Day Breakfast on Saturday, November 7. Our New Generation program, offering safe shelter and support for mothers and children facing homelessness, invites you to tee off at the “Mulligans for Moms” Golf Tournament on September 15 at Breakfast Hill Golf Club in Greenland. You can also make a big impact by hosting third-party events or fundraisers! For questions or additional information, reach out to Rebecca Fredrickson at rfredrickson@nh-cc.org.
