BARNSTEAD — Christmas Fair Community Fundraiser for "End 68 Hours of Hunger" on Saturday, Nov. 19, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at the Barnstead Elementary School, 91 Maple St.

The fair will have over 30 unique crafters; End 68 Raffle Fundraiser; and Christmas music. From 10 a.m. to noon, bring the kids for photos with Santa sponsored by ImaJenAtion Photography and Video. Oscar's Elves will be offering gift wrapping, sponsored by the Oscar Foss Memorial Library; the Boy Scouts will be helping vendors and selling some great camping items.

Each year, End 68 Hours of Hunger continues to advance its mission to end childhood food insecurity. This problem impacts a child's health and education as children. Through the food donation program, the fundraiser has affected the lives of many children. Teachers report that children are more responsible and their performance improves and report documented increases in reading and math scores. We make a difference in the potential success of every child that is fed. We cannot do it this without your support!

It is with the help of donations from supporters such as you that we will continue to make improvements in the lives of these children. For more information about this program or to donate, visit www.end68hoursofhunger.org, end68hoursofhunger.org, or email: Lori or Heather at BarnsteadNH@end68hoursofhunger.org.
