The latest issue of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation’s Purpose newsletter is now available online.
In our cover story, we learn about the many ways in which New Hampshire’s nonprofit organizations have been working to address the state’s affordable housing crisis — and meet a family now living in safe and secure housing thanks to that work. Also in this issue, we meet Tina Philibotte, chief equity officer for the Manchester School District, learn about how one New Hampshire man saved for years for a scholarship to benefit other students, and more.
