This is our fourth year participating in NH Gives, but the most important one for us and all of the nonprofits in New Hampshire because of COVID-19.

And all the more generous because of a site-wide match – made possible by the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation and its Thomas W. Haas Fund and John F. Swope Fund – of $250,000 will be available. While the funds last, each online donation made at www.nhgives.org to any participating nonprofit will be matched 1:1 up to $1,000 per donation for the first $250,000 given during the 24-hour event.

That means InDepthNH.org, which is listed under our umbrella New Hampshire Center for Public Interest Journalism. So give at the 6 p.m. June 9 start and we might win a prize as well. And give from the heart because we work from the heart. Please.

The site-wide match will be turned on at 6 p.m. on June 9, 2020. It will show up on our profile and will show – in real time – how much of the matching dollars are left. And it only lasts until June 10 at 6 p.m.

New Hampshire has many nonprofit organizations that do very valuable work. And we hope you give to as many as you can.

We hope you will make a donation to us. I promise that every penny will be spent on news reporting because that is where the real need is in New Hampshire. Thanks for everything. We love working for you, New Hampshire.
