CONCORD — The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation has made $3.8 million in grants through its Community Grants Program to support the operations of 82 nonprofits serving New Hampshire communities.

Contributions from Foundation donor-advised funds made it possible to increase the total amount awarded through this grants program in 2022 by more than $1 million.

“New Hampshire asks a lot of the nonprofit sector — from teaching our youngest children to sheltering struggling families to helping protect natural resources and promote civil discourse. In the past couple years, we have asked even more of them and they continue to meet their missions in the face of increased community need and challenges,” said Anne Phillips, director of grant-making at the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. “The Foundation is proud to partner with and support these organizations that help make New Hampshire a community where everyone can thrive.”
