"We are very honored by the Upper Valley businesses who helped us commemorate WISE's 50 years and who have supported WISE over the decades. WISE is here for you and your employees, you are not alone." -WISE Executive Director Peggy O'Neil

Thank YOU Upper Valley businesses! We are winding down our year of commemorating WISE's 50th supporting people and communities in the Upper Valley. We appreciate the incredible support we received from local businesses throughout the year. We often marvel about the Upper Valley's incredible generosity and commitment to philanthropic endeavors. We are truly honored by the many ways you stand by our side in support and in partnership.

Covered Bridges Half Marathon After 2 full years of waiting, the 30th Annual Covered Bridges Half Marathon was finally held in person on June 5th! The day was perfect for a race - cool temperatures and sunny blue skies. We had a lot of fun meeting our committed Team WISE runners after so many emails and virtual coordination. Our team of 43 runners collectively ran 471.6 miles and raised over $30,000 for WISE programming! Thank you to everyone who donated, participated, cheered on a friend, and supported WISE! Planning and preparation for next year’s race will be under way soon. Stay tuned as early registration for 2023 will open in November.

WISE Words in Woodsville We were very excited to meet with students at Woodsville High School before the school year closed for the summer. This was our first time recording at Woodsville and appreciated their enthusiasm and their recording studio in the library! Aliza, Brianna, Paige, and Monica each recorded a new WISE Words segment that will air on WGXL, The River, and WYKR in the fall when school is back in session.

Coming to community events near you Look for us at farmer's markets and events in your communities this summer. As villages and towns start to open up and once again offer opportunities to gather together, we want to be a visible presence. It is a great chance to connect with people and remind them that WISE is a critical and available resource. When you are out and about, stop by and say hi to our WISE Ambassadors. Pick up a sticker, frisbee, and other materials and join in some of the fun activities we have planned. We'll see you there!
