​​​​​Dear John,

Did you know that in 2022, 6,031 people in the State of New Hampshire were homeless? Among them is Louise, a determined mother striving to secure a better future for her children.  Louise lives at our shelter with 10 other families.  

Louise's story echoes the unfortunate reality faced by many individuals who find themselves without a home because they had nowhere else to turn.  

Your gift helps Louise and many others, up and out of homelessness.

Louise entered homelessness after separating from her partner, leaving her struggling to afford rent payments on her own—a situation all too familiar. 

Every day, thanks to the support of individuals like you, Louise works closely with her case worker every day to navigate her path towards long-term housing, safety, and security for herself and her children. 

We need your help to continue serving our community. Your generous contribution today can make a meaningful impact: 

$1,000  Provides a home for a month for a family or individual.

​​​​​​ $500 Offers shelter to 11 people for a night at our Adult Emergency Shelter.

$250 Means two families at our Family Emergency Shelter will have a roof over their heads for a night.

$100 Gives an individual two weeks of essential services.

Your contribution today will provide shelter, food, and supportive services to mothers like Louise who seek our help.  

Thank you for your continued generosity and for being a beacon of hope for individuals like Louise. 

Wishing you and your family a joyous holiday season, 

Maria Devlin
President & CEO
