The Foundation is committed to increasing opportunity for all of New Hampshire's kids.

Together, we are making progress for our kids

The Charitable Foundation invested $17.5 million to increase opportunities for young people through its New Hampshire Tomorrow initiative last year. Read our 2018 progress report

By Lois R. Shea, Senior Writer and Communications Officer  |  

People are coming together through the Charitable Foundation’s New Hampshire Tomorrow initiative – nonprofit partners, generous donors, partners in the public and private sectors – because they understand that investing in our kids is the single best investment any of us can make.

Little children in Manchester are getting the early care and services they need to get a great start; young people in Rochester are making the most of the opportunity to move quickly into great careers; moms and babies affected by the state’s opioid crisis are getting wraparound care and services they need to thrive – and so much more.

Read our 2018 New Hampshire Tomorrow Progress Report.

And join us – because every single child deserves the opportunity to reach her full potential. And because more opportunity for our kids means a stronger New Hampshire tomorrow.
