In October, The New Hampshire Women’s Foundation chose Belknap House as the 2023 She Change Award recipient! The award was given at the annual Women Building Community Luncheon held by the foundation in Manchester. Our former Executive Director, Executive Assistant, and two board members attended on behalf of Belknap House to accept the award.
The She Change Award is given to an innovative and impactful organization that inspires and engages its community and works to enhance life for women, girls, and gender-expansive people. The award consists of a generous $10,000 grant and afforded our former Executive Director Paula Ferenc the opportunity to address the Women Building Community Luncheon about our work at Belknap House.
We cannot express how incredible it was to address the crowd at the Luncheon and chat with fellow change-makers from across the state about housing and economic stability for women and children. All of the organizations in attendance do incredible work and we are so honored to be a part of the Women's Foundation community!
