On Friday, May 3, the NH Chapter welcomed 165 guests to attend the First Annual Night of Hope gala and awards celebration at the Manchester Country Club in Bedford, NH. The Night of Hope is a very special event recognizing individuals and community partners who have gone above and beyond to collaborate with AFSP to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention in New Hampshire. The evening included live and silent auctions, networking, and dinner; $40,000 was raised to support AFSP’s mission to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide.
