Thank you to all who helped spruce up the kitchen and outside of the House for the Granite State United Way Day of Caring...Rebecca & Molly Metcalf and Christina Finton from Casella Waste Systems and Friend of the Bancroft House, Sue MacLennan stopped by the House and to put the finishing touches on our kitchen remodel with a fresh coat of paint on the walls. Rusty Talbot, United Way Representative and owner of North Country Climbing Center and Kevin Johnson tackled the out-door project of cleaning up of the driveway from the remnants of our tree removal project this past winter. A full pick-up truck of pine needles and branches were dispatched to the Transfer Station compost pile.

All of us at the Bancroft House are humbled that our mission to provide sanctuary for our North Country neighbors who find themselves without a place to call home was supported by so many.

Thank you to Bruce Caplain & Bike the North Country for the donation of an e-bike to our resident "Keith". Keith went out of his way to be helpful during his residency at the House. Edging the gardens, housekeeping around the House, keeping the kitchen picked up, and generally offering a helping hand whenever possible. The donation of the e-bike will help Keith getting back and forth to Littleton to obtain medical supplies and medications for his ailing wife.

A Marvelous Saturday for the 6th Annual Co****le Tournament to Benefit the Bancroft House...Earl Duval, his family, and a cadre of volunteers once again hosted an amazing event raising funds to support the work of the Bancroft House in providing shelter to women, children, & families throughout the year. Dozens of games of co****le, music by the Duncan Idaho Band, food compliments of Chef Dylan of Plan It Fresh Catering, Raffle prized from over thirty contributing organizations & businesses, and evening fireworks.
Thanks to all the volunteers who solicited raffle prizes, helped set up and break down the venue, and pitched-in to make this event a success. And of course to Earl and his family who opened their home and their hearts in this effort to keep the Bancroft House serving those in need of a sanctuary to call "home".
