GET INVOLVED

•Volunteer

Call Nora at the Upper ValleyTurning Point, (802) 295-5206, or email npasternak@secondwindfound.org, to discuss volunteer opportunities.

•Ongoing Program Costs

Our budget is divided roughly equally between the Upper Valley Turning Point and Willow Grove, with lesser amounts devoted to our Education and Advocacy Programs. We have several diverse funding streams, and have balanced our budget every year since 1998. We’ve also maintained a prudent reserve until the economic crisis of 2008.

• Our Capital Campaign

The lease-to-purchase arrangement by which we occupy the building that houses the Upper Valley Turning Point and Second Wind Foundation offices expires in July 2010. We need to raise $400,000 to buy the building in order to avoid future dislocation, such we experienced in 2008, after ten years of growth in downtown White River.

As of November 2009, through a quiet phase of our campaign, we‘ve received pledges of $100,000, with additional anchor gifts pending. Please call Mark Helijas, Executive Director of the Second Wind Foundation at (603) 252-5206, or email mhelijas@secondwindfound.org to discuss the current status of our Campaign.
