I have so many great things to share, I don't know where to begin!

Please join us for our first ever Annie's Angels Thanksgiving Food Drive. The drop off location is Great Bay Athletic Club, 191 Exeter Road, Newmarket. Details are on the flyer below.

Thanks to Tyler Evans and Mychal Beebe, owner of Arete Chiropractic for once again supporting Angel families. Join them at Arete Chiropractic for the Arete Chiropractic Annual Angel Giving Tree. Details can be found on the flyer below. Basically, through the month of November, and into early December, you bring in a $25 gift card to Arete  Chiropractic, 875 Greenland Rd UNIT A2, Portsmouth and they will provide a complimentary regular office visit. The gift cards collected will help provide a very MERRY CHRISTMAS to as many Angel Families as possible!

I want to congratulate one of our amazing board members, Susan Young, our new Director of Development. She cleaned up at the recent BNI Awards! Congratulations Susan!  I'll let her tell you in her own words...
"Tonight was a very special night for me at the BNI Awards Banquet. I received my 5 year pin, Member of the Year Award from my chapter and Regional Member of the Year for New Hampshire!

I am a member of BNI Seacoast Success and have held many leadership roles. This chapter has been pivotal in building my green commercial cleaning company  CLEAN by the sea, LLC. I know BNI Seacoast Success will be a huge support in my new role as Director of Development for  Annie's Angels Memorial Fund. I’m looking forward to growing my network.

I’m so grateful that  Scott Earwood  with Edward Jones asked me to visit his networking group back in 2015. I had no idea this group would change my life!"

I am Humbly Yours,
William DaGiau, Founder

What do we do with the money YOU provide? WE CHANGE LIVES!
 
As Fiscal Sponsor for the Brandon and Nathan Van Fund  it was an honor to help raise $65,000!
Brandon and Nathan are identical twins with Late Onset Krabbe’s Leukodystrophy. The boys were
 in need of a wheelchair van that can accommodate two wheelchairs.  This van will allow the boys to have easier travel to go out for activities such as the movies, beach, and shopping. It will also help the boys get to their doctor’s appointments. 
Both Brandon and Nathan love going for car rides and going over all the bumps, having their own van will allow for easier travel.

As Brandon & Nathan take their first ride in their new accessible van dad had this to say, “I cannot thank you guys enough. This is the first ride in a van and everything went very well. Done right motors did an awesome job setting us up. Again thank you guys and we’ll see you all soon at The brook .”
Thank you to The Brook and all the other charities who came together to make this $65,000 purchase possible. This is going to make a huge difference in this family's life!

Another Fiscal Sponsorship Annie's Angels provide is for
Friends of Carlisle Academy.  Friends of Carlisle Academy exists to benefit the health and well-being of children and adults who participate in Carlisle Academy’s community programs. The fund underwrites special programs, sponsors education and training for emerging leaders in the field, and stewards the horses and farm resources in service to these community programs.

For the last 17 years, YOU have done all this and so much more. Please help us continue to never say NO to a family struggling through disease, illness or disability. Visit AnniesAngels.org today!
