Because of you, this year’s Annual Fund Challenge was more than a success—it was historic. Together, we didn’t just meet the challenge—we surpassed it, raising over $90,000 and, with the full matching gift, we generated more than $120,000 in total support for the League. This is an extraordinary new record.
This remarkable achievement reflects the very best of our community: generosity, belief, and a shared commitment to one another and to the future of craft in New Hampshire. Every gift, every message, and every act of participation helped propel us far beyond what has ever been accomplished before.
We are also deeply grateful to the anonymous donor whose vision and leadership inspired this moment. Because of this transformative investment, we are now positioned to prioritize key areas of our strategic plan, strengthening the foundation for the future of craft and laying the groundwork for our Centennial celebration in 2032.
This support will allow us to focus on three critical priorities:
- Advance – Strengthening our core operations and leadership initiatives to ensure a sustainable and resilient organization including further development of diversification of our revenue streams
- Cultivate – Nurturing craft and community through expanded educational programming, professional development, and a continued commitment to excellence
- Champion – Elevating our voice and impact by promoting and advocating for our mission, including deepening our branding and communications to broaden our reach and visibility through events and storytelling
As we look ahead, this milestone is more than a number—it is a powerful signal of who we are and where we are going. It affirms that the League is strong, relevant, and deeply valued—and that together, we are building something that will endure for generations to come.
Thank you. Together, we are a strong organization making a meaningful impact.
Sincerely,
