NH Gives & the Children's Museum of NH
June 6 at 6pm - June 7 at 6pm
For the 3rd year, the Children's Museum of NH is participating in the annual NH Gives program, an initiative of the NH Center of Nonprofits. This event is designed to bring the state together as one community, raising as much money and awareness as possible for NH's non-profits within a 24-hour flood of donations. The museum's goal is to raise $2,000. Donations made will be used to support the families who might struggle to pay museum admission fees. Over 30% of visitors are only able to visit because of the "Museum Access for All" program, which does things like provide subsidized bus visits for Title 1 Schools, allows families using EBT cards to pay just $1 per person admission, and even offers free programs for families with children on the autism spectrum. If the museum reaches its goal, CMNH president Jane Bard will lead the staff on a parade through the Dover Adventure Playground's splash pad in celebration! Visit
