Over this past year, NHS has created virtual content for our supporters to view from the comfort of their own home. Our videos range from folklore to floods. We're in the process of creating even more videos about James L. Smith, the Norwich Millionaires' Triangle, and the Norwich Freedom Trail.

You can check out all of our current virtual tours on our website, or on YouTube. To access virtual tours: https://www.norwichhistoricalsociety.org/virtual-tours/

Sankofa Education and Leadership, Inc. and the Hayes Family donated money to Africaphilantropies, Inc. to help the students in Togo Africa be safe due to COVID-19. We had originally thought the students needed more help with Personal Protective Equipment but what they needed more was to be able to socially distance and they needed more desks. With our generous donation, they built the desk, please see the photos below.

Thank you, Zato Kadambaya for this opportunity to help the students in Togo, Africa through these very challenging times with the COVID-19 Pandemic affecting all communities globally.
