“A gift like this from a fellow non-profit organization on the Seacoast is a great example of how we can help each other locally and have a big impact,” said Hershey Hirschkop, Executive Director of Seacoast Outright. “We are tiny organization with a mighty mission,” so the grant of $7,318.71 goes a long way to helping us serve our LGBTQ+ youth, whether it’s our ongoing Game Night, Friday Night support group, or our monthly Parent’s Group, or subsidizing our annual events, such as Portsmouth PRIDE. “We want to thank Fabulous Find in Kittery for seeing the value in assisting other organizations in our own backyards, too. This donation will help us support our ever-expanding list of programs.”

Fabulous Find is a boutique-style resale shop at 139 State Rd. (Route 1) in Kittery that identifies non-profits to support with the boutique’s income. All profits from the boutique are donated each month to local non-profits. The busier the month, the greater the donations back to the community.
