Monadnock Region
About us
The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation is embedded in every community in the state through a system of regional advisory boards and incorporators, and by having staff live and work in each region.
In the Monadnock Region, the advisory board, in partnership with Foundation staff, review and approve grant requests, host events, and identify and lead community initiatives. The incorporators are our ambassadors introducing their friends and colleagues to work of the Foundation.
In 2012, with assets totaling more than $32.3 million, donors contributed more than $1.1 million in charitable gifts and the Foundation distributed nearly $1.5 million in grants and scholarships throughout the 45 communities included in the region. Review our most recent grants.
