Thank you for a Great Year Checking in to Charity!
Fred Greenhalgh of ReVision visited Riding to the Top to meet some of their riders, volunteers, and staff
A big thank you to all our readers for helping raise $6,000 this past year for 12 different nonprofits in Maine and New Hampshire. It was an experiment for us, but we have to say, “Check in for Charity” was a big success!
Here are the nonprofits who each received $500 this year as part of the program:
- January – Center for Wildlife in Cape Neddick, ME
- February – WERU Community Radio in Blue Hill, ME
- March – Riding to the Top in Windham, ME
- April – NH Coastal Protection Partnership in Portsmouth, NH
- May – Natural Resources Council of Maine in Augusta, ME
- June – Maine Children’s Cancer Program in Portland, ME
- July – Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Assocation in Unity, ME
- August – Biodiversity Research Institute in Gorham, ME
- September – NH Audubon in Concord, NH
- October – Island Institute in Rockland, ME
- November – Seacoast Science Center in Rye, NH
- December – Guitar Doors in Gorham, ME
Check in for Charity will return in March, 2012 with terms similar to what we did in 2011. We are currently taking nominations for nonprofits, so please send in your choices and stay tuned for details in our March newsletter.
Also, please consider supporting some of the organizations we helped this past year – all are worthy causes doing great work, and the need for giving all across the nonprofit world is great. Thank you for doing your part!
