Trail Finder put trails — and local businesses — on the map

NH Legal Assistance sees increasing demand for services
The ripple effects of the COVID-19 pandemic mean an increase in need for services from the nonprofit that represents people in civil cases.

That is where New Hampshire Legal Assistance comes in. A grant from the Foundation's Community Crisis Action Fund is helping meet the need.
Addressing food insecurity north of the Notches
