We Need You Now More Than Ever.

Right now more than ever New Hampshire Youth Movement needs monthly donors to give our staff job security and to keep our movement alive. People across New Hampshire and across the country are watching our government bailout big corporations instead of working people...again. This moment, as terrifying and horrible as it is, has presented us with an opportunity to bring thousands of new people into the movement. But many foundations, grant makers, and major donors are halting their giving until the stock market recovers. Can you chip in to make sure our staff can continue to work during this critical moment?

If you sign up to be a monthly investor your first investment will go directly to our relief fund. We know that members of our community are hurting right now. As schools shut down many college students have been left without safe and secure housing, meals, healthcare and income. To provide immediate support to our community we’ve launched a relief fund that will support those affected by the closures of colleges and universities. Sign up to be a monthly investor today and we’ll move your first investment directly to our relief fund.

In addition to the relief fund we’ve launched a campaign to refund students for the cost of spring semester. We are living through a public health and economic crisis and our communities need support now. We had hoped that this would happen through the federal stimulus package but most college students are not qualified for that relief. To help meet the needs of students whose lives have been disrupted due school closures we launched a campaign calling on the University System of New Hampshire (USNH) to refund students for the services they paid for but no longer have access to such as meal plans, housing, activity fees, etc. This will give students and their families immediate financial relief during the economic crisis.

To continue our work we need you to become an monthly investor. In the midsts of economic collapse monthly investors are essential to keep our staff paid. The Covid-19 pandemic has sent shockwaves through our economy. This will dramatically affect the willingness of foundations, grant makers and major donors to support our work. While foundations tend to have massive endowments most only donate a portion of their stock market earnings every year. This means that small monthly investors are the key to giving our staff job security and continuing to build the movement.
