Concord, Hooksett Kiwanis Lend A Hand To The National Guard
Both organizations made donations to the New Hampshire National Guard Chaplain Service — to help those who are helping all of us.
CONCORD, NH — Hundreds of members of the New Hampshire National Guard have been on the frontlines of the fight against the new coronavirus for many months and members of two Kiwanis clubs in the central part of the state are doing their part to help them.
Concord Kiwanis and Kiwanis in Hooksett made $500 donations to the chaplain emergency relief fund of the New Hampshire National Guard this week. The chaplain services provide spiritual leadership and care to guard members and assistance to families in their time of need.
Major Steven Veinotte, of the relief fund, thanked the organizations for their support.
