The COVID-19 pandemic created a variety of new challenges for the AmeriCorps members in the Catholic Charities New Hampshire (CCNH) VISTA Program, but they didn’t let it stop them. This AmeriCorps Week, which runs March 7-13, we are celebrating all of our members and everything they have accomplished for communities around New Hampshire!
AmeriCorps members serve directly with nonprofit organizations and government agencies to tackle our nation’s most pressing challenges, with those in VISTA programs focusing on alleviating poverty and building the capacity of their host site. They serve full-time for 12 months during which time they recruit and manage community volunteers, raise funds, and help manage projects.

MANCHESTER, N.H. – Over the past year, communities hit hard with financial hardship are relying more and more on charitable organizations like Catholic Charities New Hampshire for emergency assistance and support.
Due to concerns regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, Catholic Charities New Hampshire have announced they will be hosting their annual Mardi Gras Gala virtually this year and will be streaming the event live at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb.16 on their website (www.cc-nh.org).
The organization typically hosts their annual Mardi Gras Gala in-person, which is held the last Saturday before Lent, but COVID-19 has prevented that from happening this time around. Catholic Charities New Hampshire hopes to return to an in-person event next year, contingent on the state of the pandemic.
