hanks to Covid-19 and the distress and hardship it has brought to so many of us, 2020 was a year like no other, leaving health and economic hardship in its wake. It’s safe to say all of us were hit by the pandemic in one way or another. But it’s also safe to say that none were hit more dramatically than the nonprofit organizations on the front lines of fighting the spread and effects of the virus. Providers of healthcare, of services for those who are housing-insecure, of supports for children and families to help them meet basic nutritional needs — among so many other necessary services — found their resources stretched paper-thin at a time when their support has been needed most. Nonprofits have always been essential to New Hampshire’s economy and culture. The assistance and support they offer are crucial to the well-being of the entire state. In short, they make the Granite State a better place to live and work. And right now it’s clear that they need our support more than ever. So the question we should all be asking is: How can I help? That is where the Charitable Giving Guide comes in. Its goal is to serve as a tool for nonprofits to get their message out to engage individuals and businesses throughout the Granite State. New Hampshire Business Review’s Charitable Giving Guide is designed to give our readers a chance to learn more about — or even find out about for the first time — the missions and services of many of the Granite State’s most essential nonprofit organizations. It’s also aimed at inspiring you to contribute your time, talent and money to support the many, many nonprofits that strive every day to strengthen New Hampshire’s community and make it a better place. The Charitable Giving Guide has specific information about these nonprofits, along with ways to get more involved in corporate giving and ideas on how to encourage your staff and peers to support them as well. We hope the mission of these organizations will lead you and your company to contribute in some way to make a difference.Your support has never been more crucial.

hen the crisis hit, New Hampshire’s nonprofits were there for all of us: Caring for the children of essential workers so doctors, nurses, police, firefighters and grocery workers could go to work; safely distributing groceries and essentials to families in need, despite a huge surge in demand; sheltering people without homes; caring for the sick; protecting victims of violence; reporting the news with diligence; and figuring out how to safely provide programming that kept us connected and inspired during isolating times. And so much more. Nonprofits managed all of this despite facing mounting and unexpected costs, cancellations of fundraisers, closures that sent revenues into tailspins, while facing down the enormous complexities of a global pandemic. The nonprofit staff and volunteers who made all this happen have been called “everyday superheroes,” and they are. And now, more than ever before, nonprofits need our help. Many people and businesses have given generously during this unprecedented crisis to support the critical work that keeps our communities strong. Every donation is appreciated. But nonprofits need continued support. These organizations remain — and will remain — on the front lines, meeting basic needs, managing public health, fighting for racial justice, building economic opportunity and doing a thousand other things that make New Hampshire better for all of us. Nonprofits will be absolutely integral to rebuilding efforts as our communities and economy recover from this unprecedented time. Nonprofits had New Hampshire’s back when our communities needed them the most, and they continue to have our back. Now they need everyone to show that we have theirs. Please review this giving guide, look around your community at the great work nonprofits are doing and give as generously as you can — all year long — to help New Hampshire’s nonprofits keep doing the work that makes our communities strong.

A letter from
DARTMOUTH-HITCHCOCK HEALTH
During a difficult year, extraordinary generosity and caring.
T
he past year is most often described as difficult, extraordinary, challenging and unprecedented. Yet it’s also been inspiring. From the moment the first case of COVID-19 in our region was diagnosed at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, our caregivers, staff, trainees and neighbors have stepped up. Across Dartmouth-Hitchcock Health, we responded to the pandemic with the needs of our region in mind. We have a responsibility to our patients, our communities and our employees, not only to provide the best medical care but also to focus on the growth and well-being of the populations and communities we touch. In 2020, that meant launching a COVID-19 Community Relief Fund to support nonprofit social service agencies in New Hampshire and Vermont, and a Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Fund to help keep our providers and our patients safe. We also called for donations to our HOPE Fund for employees experiencing financial hardship. We’re humbled by the tremendous outpouring of support we received from caring donors. While we faced the urgent challenges presented by the pandemic, our member organizations continued to fulfill their core missions of providing high-quality patient care, advancing scientific discovery and improving the health of the populations they serve. In the midst of great economic uncertainty, generous supporters furthered these missions with gifts to funds that help us bring the latest medical knowledge to our patients, deliver excellence and value in the care we provide, honor each patient’s needs and preferences, and improve health in our region. And the pandemic didn’t stop thousands of participants from joining virtual events to raise money for our Norris Cotton Cancer Center and Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock. The past year took away a lot from all of us, but it also showed us how much we all have to give. To our caregivers and staff who demonstrate their heartfelt commitment to our patients, and to the donors, friends and volunteers who stand by us in our work, we offer our most sincere gratitude.

A letter from HARVARD PILGRIM HEALTH CARE FOUNDATION
A
a local not-for-profit, Harvard Pilgrim’s heart and soul are exemplified by the passion and actions of the Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Foundation. For over 40 years, the Foundation has provided tools, training, volunteers and leadership to help build healthy communities across our region. Since its inception, the Foundation has awarded more than $150 million to support not-for-profit organizations in helping to increase access to fresh, healthy food, and making healthcare more equitable. Driven by the mission of the Foundation and the passion of our employees, Harvard Pilgrim has a long tradition of supporting organizations and causes in the cities, towns and neighborhoods it serves. While 2020 was certainly a year we’ll never forget, our passion for supporting our communities ran even deeper. The Foundation was able to provide more than $10 million in funds across our region, to make sure that the valuable work that notfor-profit organizations were already doing could continue and in some instances, provide them with an ability to shift their focus to different pressing needs. There are not enough words to thank those who continue to support and give back to the communities where we all live, work and play. While the Covid-19 pandemic may have changed the world around us, I am very proud of our Foundation’s continued commitment to good health through philanthropy and giving, and Harvard Pilgrim’s efforts to create healthier New Hampshire communities for all.

FIVE WAYS TO HELP NONPROFITS NOW
Organizations that have been heroic in response to the COVID crisis need help more than ever By Anne Phillips, director of grantmaking, and Michael DeCristofaro, senior philanthropy advisor, at the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation
N
onprofits have never needed help more than they do now. The public health crisis and economic fallout spurred a huge spike in demand for services coupled with increased cost and complexity of delivering those services during a pandemic. Fundraisers that nonprofits rely on to be able to provide critical services to our communities have had to be canceled or curtailed, adapted to the times. Organizations that rely on ticket sales and admissions have taken a huge hit. Nonprofits in New Hampshire do everything: They feed the hungry, protect victims of violence, house struggling families, tend to the sick, report the news with diligence and accuracy, protect the rights of people with nowhere else to turn and a thousand other things. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, nonprofits adapted and kept right on providing critical services to our communities. We counted on them to do that. And nonprofits count on generosity, year over year, to survive. So how can you help nonprofits now, as they continue to meet community needs and help New Hampshire rebuild from this crisis? Here are some things to keep in mind — for charitable budgets of all sizes: 1. We encourage direct gifts to nonprofits, particularly gifts for general operating support. If you believe in what your local food pantry is doing, or in the mission of your local art museum or homeless shelter, give to support its whole mission rather than restricting your donation for a specific project or purpose. A food pantry needs food, of course, but it also needs to keep the electricity running to its freezer, refrigerator and lights. An art museum needs a building, and it also needs programming to bring art outside those walls and into the community. A homeless shelter needs warm blankets, of course, but it also needs staff, and hand sanitizer and masks to keep people safe. Unrestricted donations are most valuable because they can be put to use where they are most critically needed. 2. Having trouble deciding where to give? Look through this giving guide for idea, and look around your community. Consider the thousands of ways that nonprofits knit our communities together and make
them better for all of us: providing early-childhood education so parents can work; running food pantries and soup kitchens so no one has to go hungry; keeping your local library stocked with books for anyone to read; providing shelter for people without homes; mentoring young people so that everyone has a chance to thrive; running performing arts venues that make our communities more vibrant; conserving land for all to enjoy; and so much more. If you would prefer, you can give to an emergency fund like those established by United Way chapters, the New Hampshire Community Development Finance Authority or the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation, which are directing funds where they are urgently needed. 3. Make giving a family affair, and make it a practice. When children are included in a family’s giving, they develop lifelong habits of generosity, empathy and meaningful connection to community. One idea: Encourage children, teens and young adults to share what they can from their allowance money or earnings, and then have adults in the family commit to matching their gifts at a ratio that makes sense for you. Then, share in the choosing of community nonprofits for the family to support. 4. If you run a business, consider matching employee donations to nonprofits to bring your team together and maximize charitable impact in the communities where you live, work and play. 5. If you have the capacity to give at a larger scale, talk with your financial advisor and consider opening a philanthropic fund for your family or business to support nonprofits in our communities. Funds can be established to support scholarships, individual nonprofits, regions, fields of interest or donor-advised funds from which donors recommend grants. Gifts can be made into those funds in the form of cash or other assets including stocks, real estate or business interests. (Some nonprofits can also accept non-cash gifts directly.) However you give, and at whatever level, your gift to support the critical work of nonprofits is appreciated and helps make New Hampshire better for every person who calls New Hampshire home.
The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation helps generous individuals, families and businesses maximize the power of their giving, connects donors with high-impact nonprofits and programs, and leads and invests on important initiatives for the state.

ACTS OF KINDNESS FOR COMMUNITY
Outdoor Pride Landscaping and Snow Management team gives back where they live, work and play
By Lois Shea
M
ark Aquilino’s first job at Outdoor Pride Landscape and Snow Management was picking up trash. At 12 years old, he would go to corporate campuses with his father on weekends and spend afternoons collecting and bagging trash. He was paid per bag, and his dad would inspect his work at day’s end. If Mark had done well and the grounds were spotless, they would get to stop for an ice cream on the way home. At 13, Mark graduated to weed-whacking and laying brick walkways. Now, he is president of a Manchester-based company that employs 75 people year-round and 300 during winter snow-removal season and was named to the Forbes Magazine “Small Giants” list of the nation’s “Best Small Companies of 2019.”

Mark’s parents, Dale and Michael, started Outdoor Pride 32 years ago with one Kubota tractor, a dump truck, some mowing equipment and a small-business loan. “They instilled a work ethic in me, big time,” said Mark, who took over as president of the company six years ago. “It was fun to grow up in an entrepreneurs’ household, and to see how they leaned on each other.” They also instilled in him a sense of responsibility to the wider community: Always thank a veteran for their service. Always look for places where your volunteer time could make a difference and pitch in. And that ethic runs through the family business. 8 Charitable Giving Guide 2021
The Aquilinos started a corporate donor-advised fund at the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation two years ago to formalize and expand their giving to the community. One of their first significant grants was to the Boys and Girls Club of Manchester to support a literacy program to help combat “summer learning loss.” They used that fund again to support the community when need was deeply exacerbated by the COVID crisis: recommending a generous grant to “Meals for Manchester,” a partnership with Southern New Hampshire University that helped make sure children who rely on school meals were still getting enough to eat when schools were closed due to the pandemic, and to Concord Hospital to support care for the community. Recent grants also supported the Liberty House home for veterans and the Solinsky Center for Cancer Care at Elliot Hospital. Outdoor Pride’s community support is embedded in its culture. In January — before COVID had arrived in New Hampshire — the team decided to embark on a “20 in 20” campaign, pledging to undertake 20 acts of kindness for the community in 2020. Some of the 20 in 20 were donations, like to the Elliot and the Manchester Police Department and Manchester South Soccer League, and some were volunteer efforts, like trail clean-ups and landscaping at Liberty House. Then COVID struck, and acts of kindness became even more essential. The team hit 20 long before the year was out and kind of stopped counting: There were meals delivered to front-line workers, warm coats for a family in need, and grocery cards for folks who saw their livelihoods evaporate when the pandemic and economic fallout took its toll. “It’s just doing what you can to make an impact in people’s lives,” Mark said, emphasizing that “20 in 20” was an idea that came from Outdoor Pride’s employees. “We want to help enrich lives. What can’t we conquer when we come together as a community?” Part of what earned Outdoor Pride a spot on the Forbes list was its employee retention, which has risen from 45% to 85% in the past five years. Mark Aquilino stands in the equipment yard — the single tractor and dump truck replaced now by 50 loaders, 50 skid-steers, 50 plow trucks, more tanker trucks for brine and some 50-60 pieces of equipment for clearing snow from walkways. People want to know that the company they work for — and hire — cares about the community where they live, he said. Outdoor Pride’s commitment to giving makes that statement. “We hope this shows what type of a company we are,” he said, “and the impact we’re trying to have throughout the community in which we live, work and play.”
NH SHOWS UP IN A BIG WAY FOR NH GIVES Online giving event poised to continue momentum in 2021
NHGives,
a 24-hour online giving event created by the New Hampshire Center for Nonprofits, provided a good news story in the middle of 2020, and organizers are working on continuing that momentum for 2021. The 2020 event, held in June, raised more than it had in the previous four years combined. A total of $3,372,205 was raised in 24 hours — including $1 million in the first eight minutes of the event. “This unbelievable outpouring of support from every corner of New Hampshire just shows what’s possible when we come together,” said Kathleen Reardon, CEO of the New Hampshire Center for Nonprofits. “Even though NH Gives is only 24 hours, these donations will have a lasting impact on our communities and the nonprofits that work so hard to make our lives better.” Prior to the 2020 event, NH Gives had raised a total of $1.5 million since its inception in 2016. “I looked at the totals in the first 10 minutes of the event and I actually shouted with joy,” said Dick Ober, president and CEO of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation, which has been the lead sponsor of NH Gives since 2016. “This continues to be a really, really challenging time for nonprofits, who are having to adapt and work under extremely challenging conditions to continue to deliver on their critical missions. And the people of New Hampshire were saying: ‘We get it! Thank you for what you do! We are here for you.’” A record-high 488 nonprofits from all over the state participated in NH Gives in 2020, and a record-breaking 14,371 people signed on to NHGives.org to give during the 24-hour period. Friends in Action, a Durham nonprofit that helps people with disabilities create meaningful relationships and lasting connections, raised $108,398 during the 24-hour event. The 2020 event was the first time the organization had participated in NH Gives. The organization had canceled fundraisers and moved all of its programming online because of the Covid-19 crisis. After Friends in Action’s successful NH Gives Campaign, “I’m feeling like we’re going to make it through this Covid-19 crisis and come out strong on the other end,” said Executive Director Heidi Chase. NHGives.org is an easy-to-use platform where people can find causes they care about, donate securely and become fundraising champions. Participating nonprofits also receive training and marketing support in the months leading up to the event. Matching donations and

prizes help to spur donations throughout the 24-hour period. NH Gives 2021 is scheduled for June 8 and 9. Registration for nonprofits to participate will open in March. The event has taken on increased importance for nonprofits, which are facing a huge increase in need for services due to the pandemic and its economic fallout across our communities. That increase in need has come at the same time that nonprofits have been largely unable to hold many traditional fundraisers they depend on to provide critical services. The need is greater than ever, and organizers of NH Gives 2021 are hoping for another record-breaking response. “The nonprofit sector has rallied at a time when New Hampshire needed them the most,” said Reardon. “And, as we bounce back from the effects of this crisis, nonprofits will be there helping us rebuild, and returning vibrancy to our communities. NH Gives is a wonderful way for all of us to say ‘thank you,’ to be part of that rebuilding, and do to something great — together.”

A GIFT OF CLOSELY HELD STOCK
Donations of closely held stock can have a big charitable impact, but timing and planning are critical By Lois Shea
R
ichard Samuels is a director in the corporate department of the law firm McLane Middleton. He concentrates his practice in corporate governance, mergers and acquisitions and securities regulation, including SEC regulation, private securities offerings, formation of private investment funds and registered investment adviser and broker representation. Samuels has helped many clients increase their philanthropic impact by helping them choose wisely about which assets to give. He has extensive experience with assisting clients in giving closely held stock. That stock can be a great philanthropic asset, he said, but timing is critical. “Let’s assume that we’ve got a typical family business with one founder, or the founder and his brother, who own all the shares, so that there are no concerns about other shareholders or investors,” he said. The time comes when they are starting to think about selling, and they would like to share some of the wealth they have generated with charity. His advice: Don’t wait to give. “As tends to be the case, their basis in their own company is nominal. Sometimes very close to zero or very small. People start businesses so often on very close to a shoestring and have grown the company to have very substantial value. If they were to sell the company in a few years, they would have a capital gain equal to virtually the entire value. “The thing that they have to consider is that it is not unusual that when a closely held company is sold, the value that the owners get is more than they anticipated.” So giving away some of that value to a nonprofit before a sale will lessen that tax burden later, and ultimately make more money available for charitable purposes. Planning ahead is key to both. The value of the charitable contribution for tax purposes would be the appraised market value of the shares. The most important thing: “You don’t want to wait until after the transaction” because, while giving afterwards is an option and will be appreciated by nonprofits, gifts prior to transactions can have both greater charitable impact and tax advantages. Business owners may have concerns about giving what amounts to part ownership and control of their
12 Charitable Giving Guide 2021
company, in the form of stock. Samuels said that the planning of such gifts — including not just timing but also percentage of total holding — needs to be carefully executed. A nonprofit may wish to liquidate the gifted stock right away, to make immediate use of the value of the gift, or may choose to hold the stock until it is liquidated when the company is sold. Typically, there is no market for private company shares, so if the nonprofit chooses to accept the gift, it will likely have to hold the shares until a sale is completed. Thorough planning and understanding of IRS regulations surrounding such transactions are critical in either case. Samuels worked with one client whose carefully planned gift meant that he was able to make a significant amount available for charitable giving. He stayed on with his company when it was sold to a private equity firm. After that sale, he was awarded profits interest (ownership units in an LLC or partnership, similar to stock) as part of his compensation package. He gave the profits interest to an existing donor-advised fund at the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. If properly structured, the IRS values profits interests at zero at the time of a transaction, but the value appreciates over time. When the company sold a second time 2 and a half years later, that asset, now significantly appreciated, was liquidated, making more than $200,000 available in the donor-advised fund to support good work in New Hampshire communities. A second gift of the same type provided another $500,000 in charitable dollars. Grants from that fund have supported youth sports, a recovery program for people with substance use disorders, adaptive sports programs for people with disabilities and more.
Samuels has served on boards of many New Hampshire nonprofits, so he understands the potential — and the potential ramifications — of these kinds of gifts from both sides. From a nonprofit’s perspective, he said, there are also things to consider before accepting gifts of closely held stock. “With respect to all of their assets, the board and management (of a nonprofit) has a high degree of fiduciary duty that, in some cases, could put them at odds with the donor. You want to make sure it is a company that is well-run and run in an ethical manner so you don’t anticipate having to put yourself in an uncomfortable position with the very person who donated.”
Overall, contributions of all types of stock to charity are growing nationwide. According to 2016 IRS data, gifts of stock accounted for 44.4% of the value of all donations that year, increasing 13.2% from the year before and totaling $32.7 billion in gifts to charity nationwide. Ultimately, Samuels said, when well-planned, gifts of closely held stock are another way that generous people can help the nonprofits that help their communities. “My view is that nobody donates to charity simply for financial reasons,” Samuels said. “There is always a charitable intent.”

HOW TO HELP CHARITIES HIT BY COVID With even greater demand, many organizations are in precarious financial positions
By Bob Bonfiglio, a private wealth advisor and CEO at Rise Private Wealth Management — a private wealth advisory practice of Ameriprise Financial Services in Bedford. He can be reached at 603-606-4255.
I
n these challenging economic times, many worthwhile charitable organizations find themselves in a precarious financial position. Meanwhile, they are experiencing unprecedented demand, especially those charities who provide basic needs like food and shelter. Thankfully, new, unique provisions in the tax code have been implemented in response to the Covid-19 crisis, creating more incentives for giving. You may be able to better leverage your donations with tax-smart strategies. So, if you’re able to extend your generosity during this time of increased need, it may be an opportune year to make contributions to a charity.
EVERYONE CAN CLAIM A DEDUCTION In 2020, the standard deduction is $12,400 for a single tax filer or $24,800 for a married couple filing a joint return (even more for those age 65 or over). Your itemized deductions would need to exceed those levels to benefit from itemizing. Those who don’t typically itemize are not able to deduct charitable contributions from their taxes. However, on your 2020 tax return, you will be allowed to deduct up to $300 in cash contributions to qualified charities, even if you choose the standard deduction.
HIGHER CEILING ON GIVING If you do itemize deductions and plan on large gifts, the tax rules prevented you from claiming a deduction that exceeded 60% of your adjusted gross income in a single year. In a unique provision for 2020, you can now
14 Charitable Giving Guide 2021
claim a deduction valued at up to 100% of your AGI for charitable contributions. If your financial circumstances put you in a position to make substantial gifts, this will be the most favorable year, from a tax perspective, to do it.
TAX-EFFICIENT IRA DISTRIBUTION A special provision for 2020 allows individuals subject to required minimum distributions from IRAs and workplace retirement plans to forgo those distributions. If you don’t need to draw from your IRA to meet your income needs for this year, you still have an opportunity to put the funds that would have been RMD dollars to use as a charitable contribution. The most tax-efficient way to do so is with a qualified charitable distribution (QCD). Up to $100,000 per year can be contributed in this way to charitable organizations. With a QCD, if you are 70.5 or older, funds are distributed directly to the charity from your IRA, so you don’t have to claim the income before making the contribution. That is a tax-saving strategy you can use whether you itemize deductions or claim the standard deduction.
PUT A GIVING STRATEGY IN PLACE Your circumstances today and your financial future may require careful reassessment, given the current economic challenges. Your charitable giving strategy should be incorporated into a review of your comprehensive financial plan. Check with your financial advisor and tax professional as you consider your options for giving in 2020 and beyond.

Nearly 80 cents of every dollar raised supports research, education and community outreach. As the largest, private nonprofit funding source for cardiovascular disease and stroke research next to the federal government, the Association has invested more than $4.1 billion in research since 1949 to enhance our knowledge of cardiovascular diseases and stroke and has funded 13 Nobel Prize winners.
Volunteer Opportunities:

Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains (GSGWM) unleashes the G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader)™ in every girl, preparing her for a lifetime of leadership — from taking a nighttime hike under the stars to accepting a mission on the international space station; from lobbying the city council with her troop to holding a seat in Congress; from running her own cookie business today to tackling cybersecurity tomorrow. Research shows that girls learn best in an all-girl, girl-led and girl-friendly environment. Girl Scouts is a place where she’ll practice different skills, explore her potential, take on leadership positions — and even feel allowed to fail, dust herself off, get up and try again. We will continue to expand our diverse programming, offered in person and online, to provide opportunities for girls in the outdoors, STEM (science, technology, engineering and math), entrepreneurship and civic action/engagement. We will continue to widen our reach by ensuring that the benefits of Girl Scouts are available to all girls through financial assistance, programs run in partnership with community organizations and after-school programs, and expanding our online programs. Girl Scouts take the potential of girls, combines it with robust skill-building programming, and adds caring adult mentors and strong female role models to build girls who make the world a better place.
Engagement Opportunities:
There are numerous opportunities to engage with Girl Scouts throughout the year. Volunteers can assist through virtual and in-person activities. Cookie Rallies prepare Girl Scouts for a successful Girl Scout Cookie® season with hands-on exhibits and workshops that develop life skills and teach financial literacy and entrepreneurship.

Our Young Women of Distinction event celebrates girls who have earned the highest awards in Girl Scouting: the Girl Scout Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards. Partnership opportunities include developing programs and activities that support Girl Scout initiatives in STEM, outdoor adventures, the Girl Scout Leadership Experience and Girl Assistance programs.
Giving Opportunities:
We recognize the continued generosity of our individual and corporate donors, and the support of partners who directly and positively impact Girl Scouts throughout our council. Giving opportunities include, but are not limited to: Unleashing Her Potential Campaign, supporting the continued growth of our membership through program expansion and facility improvements; Girl Assistance Fund and Campership Assistance, providing Girl Scouting to girls regardless of their family’s economic circumstances; Gift of Caring program, donating Girl Scout Cookies® to Hometown Heros and military service members (over 81,000 packages donated for our 2020 Gift of Caring program); and planned giving through memorial gifts and our Juliette Gordon Low Society. For more details, contact us or visit our “Donate” page on our website.

Our number one priority is to consistently provide superior outcomes for patients of all ages including children, the elderly, the acute and chronically ill, and those at end of life. Serving 25 communities in southern New Hampshire, we provide traditional home care, including nursing, rehabilitation therapies, medical social work and licensed nursing assistants. We are proud to report a 5-star rating from CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) in patient satisfaction. Our hospice team cares for dying patients in the home, in nursing facilities and in our own Community Hospice House. 2020 marked the 20th anniversary of the opening of the Community Hospice House, which welcomed its first patients in December of 2000. For compassionate, experienced, skilled care, families and physicians rely on Home Health & Hospice Care, one of the region’s most experienced visiting nurse associations.
Home Health & Hospice Care and the Community Hospice House depend on the generosity of a caring community to provide free and subsidized care to those patients who fall through the insurance cracks and have no resources to pay for care. One can contribute to HHHC’s Annual Fund by giving memorial gifts in honor of a loved one or friend, naming HHHC in their will or planned giving arrangements, and participating in events and corporate sponsorships.
Volunteer Opportunities:
HHHC has over 200 volunteers who provide a variety of services, from taking patients to physician appointments to sitting at the bedside of a dying patient for presence. We have a comprehensive volunteer training program that allows interested people to learn and have a very meaningful volunteer experience.

Fundraising Events:
Mission Statement:
Funding is primarily provided from referring school districts, DCYF, DOE, Medicaid and counterpart agencies from other states. Since public funding covers only 90% of essential living, clinical and educational expenses, every dollar donated to Spaulding Academy & Family Services has profound impacts for each child on campus. Private donations and grants from individuals, foundations and community organizations help fund activities, projects and programs that directly benefit the children in our care that are not afforded through public funding. Year established: 1871 emploYees: 266 annual revenue: $18,300,000
Spaulding Academy & Family Services offers a variety of ways to provide support for our kids. In addition to participating in Giving Tuesday, NH Gives, AmazonSmile and other large coordinated fundraising efforts, we are continuously identifying ways to connect with those individuals and companies who would like to learn more about our organization and the children and families we serve. Prior to the pandemic, we launched a summer celebration of Spaulding friends held right on our campus with breathtaking views of the landscape and an insider view of residential life.
Giving Opportunities:
Since public funding covers only 90% of essential living, clinical and educational expenses, every dollar donated to Spaulding Academy & Family Services has profound impacts for each child on campus. Private donation opportunities include unrestricted or restricted gifts, gifts of goods and services, matching gifts, stock, tribute or memorial gifts, and lifetime gift planning. In addition to our event sponsorships, we offer opportunities providing significant benefits and value to philanthropic corporate partners. We welcome opportunities to design custom packages to support your professional or personal giving goals. Our website includes the ability to donate securely and conveniently online.
Volunteer Opportunities:
Service Locations:
Located on nearly 500 acres in Northfield, NH, our scenic hilltop campus offers a safe, supportive and intensely therapeutic environment for children from across NH and beyond. In addition to campus programming, Spaulding’s communitybased programs include a variety of services provided to NH children and their families where they are needed most.
We cherish volunteers who would like to give the gift of time and service to our children. Volunteer opportunities are abundant both on the Spaulding Academy & Family Services campus and in our community. We welcome the opportunity to discuss your ideas and interests to develop a custom opportunity to meet your professional or personal volunteer goals.

Rich Lowney President, NH Alliance of Boys & Girls Clubs facebook.com/nhclubs nhclubkids.com
Since the first New Hampshire Club opened its doors in Manchester in 1906, Boys & Girls Clubs have been changing young people’s lives. Today 10 individual clubs are headquartered in Allenstown, Concord, Derry, Lakes Region (Laconia), Manchester, Nashua, North Country (Littleton/Lisbon), Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, Salem and Souhegan Valley (Milford) with 18 club program sites and 21 school sites. Boys & Girls Clubs have served more than 25,000 registered members, and more than 40,000 additional youth participate in our outreach programs and events statewide. Boys & Girls Clubs in New Hampshire have developed strong nationally recognized prevention programs that are having a significant impact in reducing youth alcohol, tobacco and drug usage. Clubs will continue this great work in the coming year. Clubs are also providing great opportunities for our youth members in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math), fine arts, theater, teen programs and much more. This will remain a priority in 2021, along with meals programs that serve thousands of youth on a monthly basis. This past year, Clubs across the state responded to the Covid-19 crisis by working hard to open their doors and safely serve youth across the state. Since April, Clubs have been serving youth in new and innovative ways. Initially, Clubs were keeping in touch with youth through virtual programming, but that quickly changed when Clubs were allowed to safely open our doors again to our members. This past year has been challenging for many, but the Clubs in New Hampshire have stepped up to serve thousands of youth and provide a safe learning environment for kids to thrive in under adverse conditions. We knew our parents had to get back into the workforce and our children needed some normalcy. We will continue to do whatever it takes in 2021 to provide for the thousands of youth and families that rely on our services.
Giving Opportunities:
Boys & Girls Clubs in New Hampshire depend on fundraising, special events, annual appeals, grants, foundations, and public and private partnerships for the support of the community-based youth development programs and services throughout the state. Every child deserves a great future! Clubs are working to assure success is within reach of every child entering our doors, with members on track to achieve our priority outcomes in academic success, good character and citizenship, and healthy lifestyles. Boys & Girls Clubs in New Hampshire have a proven track record of financial accountability, ensuring proper use of funds. We are uniquely positioned to help a donor address any youth development need or challenge on a statewide platform.
Volunteer Opportunities:
Volunteers are the key to making our Clubs successful. Interested volunteers can help Clubs as members of the board, serve on special event committees and assist with other activities that occur throughout the year. Program volunteer opportunities include academic (tutors, mentors), sports (coaching, instructors), cultural arts (dance, music, chorus, arts), STEM (robotics, Legos, computers), chaperones, special hobbies and interests to share.

CLM provides comprehensive, evidence-based mental health and substance use treatment services, psychiatric medical services, comprehensive clinical counseling and community support services as well as 24/7 psychiatric emergency services. In 2021, we are focused on increasing access to mental health care especially as we experience an increase in the need for mental health services brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic. Our commitment to broaden our approach to whole person healthcare for persons with co-occurring mental and physical health conditions continues with our newest initiative,“Healthy Together,” delivered in partnership with Lamprey Health Care. Charitable gifts and foundation funding are purposefully used to help those in need. Last year, 5,076 individuals received care: 1,571 children and teens and 3,505 adults. The need for CLM to partner with donors and funders is essential if our communities are to be healthy and successful.

CLM’s Annual Benefit Concert and Silent Auction has become a signature event for the Center for Life Management Foundation, serving as both a community awareness building and fundraising event. This annual event has, over the years, featured a diverse list of artists including New Hampshire’s own Matt Savage, Grammy Award-winner Paula Cole, Livingston Taylor, and this past year Broken Arrow took to the stage at the Tupelo Drive-In Music Hall in Derry. Our 13th annual event will be held July 16, 2021.

All donations are greatly appreciated and acknowledged.

Future In Sight 2021 Goals:
Our mission is to advance the independence of persons who are blind or visually impaired.
In a highly visual world, having a visual impairment can have a far-reaching effect on all aspects of life. From a child’s early development, teens’ preparation for the workforce and adults’ career adaptations to seniors’ safety, independence and mental health — building connections and accessing training and support are all critical drivers of overall health and well-being. Future In Sight, established as the New Hampshire Association for the Blind in 1912, is the only statewide nonprofit that provides specialized services and support that meet the range of needs that individuals of all ages and stages of vision loss experience at home, at school and in the community — including via online learning and telehealth channels. Our overarching goal in 2021 is to reach and serve more people with vision loss who rely on our specialized services. Together with the students’ and clients’ hard work and determination, we deliver services that yield lasting outcomes, so that they thrive during life’s changing circumstances.

The 2021 Walk for Sight planning is underway and will again be a hybrid event (in-person and online) this summer, built for team building and co-branding for your business — all while raising critical funding for vision rehabilitation services through Future In Sight. Check out last year’s success and this year’s plans at futureinsight.org/walk-for-sight.

Mission Statement:
Service Locations:
Our certified, professional teams of vision professionals include itinerant Teachers of Students with Visual Impairments, Orientation & Mobility Specialists, Assistive Technology Specialists, Low Vision Occupational Therapists, Low Vision Rehabilitation Therapists, and a social work team. Staff are mobile, traveling throughout the state where their services are needed. More and more, this includes teaching and delivering vision services and activities for youth and adults (including cooking classes) remotely when in-person is not an option.
Gifts of all sizes play a critical role in our ability to fulfill our mission. Thanks to the kindness and concern of so many (nearly 40% of our revenue comes from philanthropy) assuring that people of all ages and stages of vision loss gain the skills and support they need to adapt to the changes in their lives. If you’d like to discuss ways to make an impact on the lives of those we serve in a specific way, please contact our vice president for development, Jane Driscoll, at jdriscoll@futureinsight.org. You can also give a gift today through our website at futureinsight.org/donate.
Volunteer Opportunities:
The inability to drive is one of the most difficult adjustments for a person with vision loss. Thanks to dedicated volunteers, the adjustments to daily life without wheels can be made a bit easier. Covid-19 added a layer of challenges for all of us, and that is especially true for seniors with vision loss. We have adopted common protocols to reduce risk to volunteer drivers and clients. If you have a few hours a month to commit to taking someone to a medical appointment or food shopping, we would love to hear from you. Call (603) 224-4039 or email info@futureinsight.org.

As an increasing number of families and individuals struggle with obtaining and sustaining stable housing in New Hampshire, the NH Coalition to End Homelessness (NHCEH) works with partners across the state to research and understand the most effective ways to prevent and end homelessness. We identify solutions, educate providers on best practices and empower people, some of whom are currently homeless, to advocate on behalf of all those who experience homelessness in our state. In 2020, we aim to continue helping young people who have experienced homelessness access higher education through our Hope Starts Here Scholarship. Similarly, our Granite Leaders Program will raise the voices of those who have experienced homelessness by providing them with the skills they need to inform positive change in communities across New Hampshire. In 2021, the NHCEH will continue to research and broaden our understanding of homelessness in the state, including the development and dissemination of the Annual State of Homelessness in New Hampshire Report. The Coalition will continue to expand collaborative relationships for the purpose of a collective impact for change.

New Hampshire is home to some of the most pristine lakes in the country. These irreplaceable natural resources are critical to our quality of life and the economy. But our lakes face a growing number of threats, many of which could change these cherished waters, forever — changing the way we recreate and relax and the way we do business. Two years ago, we launched the LakeSmart Lake-Friendly Living Program to reduce the harm our lakes face from polluted runoff water. We must expand our efforts. There must be a time when being LakeSmart is the norm in New Hampshire.
Engagement Opportunities:
Our lakes can’t take care of themselves. NH LAKES encourages everyone who cares about New Hampshire’s lakes to get involved in their care. NH LAKES has published the LakeSmart Guide for Lake-Friendly Living, which is available for download from the NH LAKES store at nhlakes.org. In addition, the NH LAKES website, nhlakes.org, should be your place to go with all your lake conservation questions. There, you will also learn about upcoming and recorded webinars and other ongoing educational opportunities.
Giving Opportunities:
You can help keep New Hampshire’s lakes clean and healthy by making a donation at nhlakes.org. Consider joining the growing community of Lake Keepers by setting up monthly contributions. Businesses interested in doing their part can go to nhlakes.org/business to learn more. Businesses providing services in homeownerrelated sectors are invited to apply to become a LakeSmart Service Provider Partner.
Volunteer Opportunities:
Every summer, NH LAKES trains over 300 volunteers to serve as Lake Hosts at boat ramps throughout the state. These Lake Hosts serve as the front-line defense against the spread of aquatic invasive species. If you are interested in learning more, visit nhlakes.org/lakehost. If you are a property owner at or near a lake, you can volunteer to take the first step to becoming LakeSmart by taking the online property owner self-assessment at nhlakes.org/lakesmart. NH LAKES board of directors will consider individuals interested in serving as a director.

Richie McFarland Children’s Center 2021 Goals:
Mission Statement:
RMCC is an early childhood program whose purpose is to help young children reach their full developmental potential and to support their families through that process.
Top Funding Sources:
State Contract: 39% Earned Revenues: 44% Fundraising Events, Contributions and Grants: 17% Year established: 1971 emploYees: 19 annual revenue: About $1,000,000
Our goal for the coming year is to continue to set children on the path to success by: listening to parents’ concerns and questions about their child’s development; identifying areas of strength and concern; creating child-specific goals with a comprehensive, family-centered plan on how the child will meet them; empowering parents and caregivers with knowledge of how to best work with and support their child; supporting each child’s success through certified, expert occupational, speech and physical therapy and early childhood education; encouraging and celebrating every small change and advocating for each child’s best interests and needs as he/she transitions to school. Two areas of focus in the coming year will be on: • building awareness of the critical importance of a child’s early development and the early identification of needs as well as increasing parent comfort level with initiating assessments while reducing the stigma attached to identified delays and need for intervention and • advocating at the state level for the most effective infrastructure for the system of care and the appropriate provision of funds to identify and support all children in need of early intervention.
Fundraising Events:
Service Locations:
RMCC serves 24 towns within Rockingham County including: Brentwood, Deerfield, East Kingston, Epping, Exeter, Fremont, Greenland, Hampton, Hampton Falls, Kensington, Kingston, New Castle, Newfields, Newington, Newmarket, North Hampton, Northwood, Nottingham, Portsmouth, Raymond, Rye, Seabrook, South Hampton and Stratham.

In an effort to keep everyone safe this year, we have canceled our two major fundraising events, amounting to a potential loss of over $40,000 of revenue. In celebration of RMCC’s 50th anniversary, we are set to launch a virtual campaign in March, “Stadium of Support.” We hope to garner financial support to continue our mission of “welcoming children onto the team” who may otherwise have been excluded due to a delay or disability. Visit our website to stay up to date on this special campaign!
Giving Opportunities:
There is no shortage of giving opportunities at RMCC. This past year we served 328 children, each one with individual and important needs, every one vulnerable and deserving of the best start in life. You can be a part of changing the trajectory of a child’s life by making a financial donation to RMCC’s annual campaign at any time, by sponsoring one of our fundraising events, by designating RMCC as the recipient of donations made in memory of a loved one or securing the future of RMCC with a gift to our endowment.
Volunteer Opportunities:
We love our volunteers! One of the best ways to support our mission is by serving as an advocate for the importance of early childhood development simply by talking with friends, family and community members about the work that we do at RMCC. Ongoing volunteer opportunities include positions on our board and/ or one of our standing committees. We rely on the expertise of business men and women to offer pro bono work in areas of design, finance and HR. Short-term volunteer opportunities are available each year through our fundraising events, spring/fall cleanup projects or various administrative projects.

Legacy Trust of Southern NH Health 2021 Goals:
Legacy Trust
Help Everyone Leave Prepared — a simple $2.00 serving of soup can make all the difference. When someone’s discharged from the Medical Center, they sometimes go home to empty cupboards or nothing but unhealthy frozen foods, or everything’s expired, or there’s nobody there to care for them or cook for them. For the first time in 128 years, we’re asking our community to extend a helping hand to our patients after they leave our care. They deserve a chance to safely recover at home from surgery, a heart attack, Covid-19 or other challenges.
of Southern New Hampshire Health WE ARE SOLUTIONHEALTH
Mission Statement:
We believe that people must be able to access exceptional healthcare regardless of where they live or their socioeconomic status. Southern NH Health launched the Legacy Trust in 2020 to improve the overall health and wellness of the community both within and beyond our hospital campus. Through collaboration with local partners, we identify mission-aligned and data-indicated opportunities to secure and deploy resources. It’s taken us 128 years to ask for help — we need your support today!
Fundraising Events:
Every cent of our donors’ contributions go directly to support our mission, so we are not planning events that require significant overhead or staffing. Instead, we are seeking community-hosted “Parties with a Purpose” through safely hosted house parties, backyard BBQs, game nights, wine tastings and more. The more creative, the better! We can provide support with planning and logistics, invitations and more. Start envisioning the perfect event for your venue and guests, whether it’s your living room, backyard or local park.

Southern NH Hampshire Health (a founding member of SolutionHealth) includes Southern NH Medical Center, the 188-bed city hospital in the heart of downtown Nashua, where more than 100,000 people seek our help each year. We also serve thousands of patients in more than 70 practices across the greater Nashua region through our multi-specialty provider group and four Immediate Care centers.
Your gift will help our dedicated healthcare workers refuel during this Covid-19 marathon, enabling us to build up our supply of masks, gloves and gowns, and mobilize quickly once a vaccine is fully vetted, approved and available. Additional priorities include: PROJECT HELP FUND — Focuses on supporting patients as they leave the hospital during the most vulnerable 3 to 7 days after discharge, enabling them to focus on healing. EMERGING NEEDS FUND — Enables our patients to receive exceptional care with the best technology for decades to come, no matter what new health threats emerge. SPECIALIZED CARE FUND — Ensures we are constantly evolving treatments and clinical specialties to effectively address cancer, heart disease, behavioral health and maternal health.
Volunteer Opportunities:
If you enjoy entertaining friends and colleagues, we would love to partner with you for a Party with a Purpose. Our hospital also has a robust volunteer program for all ages. Information is available at snhhealth.org/support-snhh/volunteer.
