FOR YOUTH DEVELOPMENT

We believe that all youth deserve the opportunity to thrive, and that investing in our youngest citizens sets them up to become happy, healthy, and engaged adults.

Priorities:

• Expand programs that address the achievement gap and set kids up to succeed, including mixed-delivery pre-K and summer learning initiatives.
• Increase access to summer camp, which builds resilience and connection, develops young leaders, and supports mental and physical health.
• Address the leading cause of unintentional death for children in New Hampshire through water safety education programs for youth.

 

FOR HEALTHY LIVING

We support collaborative efforts to improve holistic health, strengthen families, and promote active lifestyles for residents of all ages.

Priorities:

• Promote opportunities to foster social connection, which enhance quality of life, strengthen communities, and improve public health outcomes.
• Increase access to evidence-based wellness programs to prevent and address chronic health conditions, including diabetes, cancer, and obesity.
• Expand programs that address food insecurity.

FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY:

We leverage our trusted position in the community, private funds, and volunteers to collaboratively address cross-sector challenges.

Priorities:

• Support the State’s economic development by stabilizing the childcare workforce, which allows parents to fully engage in the labor market and businesses to thrive.
