The ending of a year is such a busy time but also a time when demand for our local services runs high.
The Blanchard Family Foundation is proud to say that we were able to deliver two donations right around the holidays.

The Capital Region Food program was started in 1974, serves the majority of Merrimack county and is solely run off volunteers. There is so much passion behind this organization and it was fascinating to hear how much they have evolved.

CASA (court approved special advocates) trains and supports volunteers who serve as advocates for children who have been abused or neglected. Unfortunately the work load is never ending and they are always looking to recruit and train new volunteers. The group of women we met with have done such amazing work, I urge you to look into this organization and see if volunteering is right for you.

Happy New Year!

Busy schedules gave way and we were able to take a photo for our quarter one donation.

BFF chose CCCNH again. The work that this team puts in is nothing short of amazing. Thank you, again, for all that you do!

Thank you to our friends at the Blanchard Family Foundation for the amazing donation of $10,000 to CCCNH. Special thanks to Julia for dropping off the "big check." Together we can work to end domestic and sexual violence in our communities.

Thank you for all of the amazing work you do in our community!

We would like to thank the Blanchard Family Foundation for their generous donation of $10,000.00 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central New Hampshire. This will allow our locations to offer quality care to more New Hampshire youth, continue strengthening the health and well being of members, and offer high quality early education in our growing number of early education classrooms.

Our programs would not see the success that they do without compassionate community members allowing us to continue serving as many communities as we do. Thank you!
