                    [post_content] => Granite Stater of the Month Mary Frances Lawler

Senator Maggie Hassan recognized Mary Lawler of Jaffrey as January's Granite Stater of the Month for her lifetime of service, including 12 years of volunteering at Monadnock Community Hospital (MCH).

Mary, an 86-year-old former nurse, initially began volunteering after a 50-year career at the hospital, inspired by her mother who also worked there as a nurse. She now contributes primarily to the hospital's human resources department, welcoming new employees and fostering a supportive community.

Senator Hassan praises Mary's dedication and her embodiment of the "Granite State spirit" - a commitment to service and making a difference regardless of age. Mary's story highlights the positive impact individuals can have through volunteering and community involvement.

Planned Gifts come in various sizes, ranging from $1,000 to $1,000,000 or more, providing individuals with diverse options for making a lasting impact. These options include making a bequest, utilizing retirement plan assets, exploring charitable gift annuities, donating real estate, or even using stocks and mutual funds for charitable contributions.

Today, the Parmelee Society carries forward this tradition of altruism.

The River Center: Strengthening Our Community, One Family at a Time

Being a community hospital means building strong bonds with our community partners. We are happy to recognize the incredible contributions the River Center has made to the place we call home. As we step into the new year, it's a perfect time to reflect on the incredible work being done by The River Center and how it continues to make a difference in the lives of individuals and families across the Eastern Monadnock Region.

Their Mission and Your Needs:

Since its inception in the 1990s, The River Center has evolved to become a designated Family Resource Center of Quality (FRC-Q). The River Center believes everyone deserves to thrive. That's why they provide parent education, family support, and community connections in a welcoming environment. They understand the challenges and changing needs of our community, and their programs and services are designed to address them head-on.

Building Strong Families:

Everyone from Newborns to Grandparents and Households of One Connection is a major concern for families today and The River Center is addressing that need in many ways. They help individuals grow, learn, and connect. They offer a wide range of programs to support families at every stage. From family support, early home support, and parent and caregiver assistance, to youth programs, kinship support, financial coaching, tax preparation, and the valuable FACT book – the center is a wellspring of resources tailored to our community's needs. Last year The River Center helped 300 families maximize their tax return.

Success Stories: Making a Difference, One Family at a Time

The impact of The River Center is best highlighted through stories like Melissa French's, who has accessed their resources for over a decade "The River Center has been there for me every step of the way," she says. "They've helped me with everything from fuel assistance to taxes. They truly make a difference in people's lives." From the Baby and Me group to financial coaching, Melissa attests to the profound impact the center has had on her life. Her words resonate: "When someone has a problem, I tell them to call The River Center; they can help."

Upcoming Events:

Here are just a few highlights of programs at The River Center:

Free Tax Assistance

If your household income is approximately $64,000 or less, you may qualify for free tax preparation and e-filing services through the IRS-sponsored Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. Certified volunteers are trained to maximize tax credits, including earned income and child tax credits, and ensure that you receive the largest refund possible. The VITA volunteers are certified by the IRS and undergo a quality review process to ensure accuracy. They are also trained as money coaches to help you make sense of your finances. The program runs from the end of January to mid-April each year. Call 603-924-6800 ext. 30 today to check if you qualify or set up an appointment. Don't pay for tax preparation services when you can have it done for free and keep more money in your pocket. In 2023 20% more tax returns were filed than 2022.

More Than Just Shopping

Convenient Location & Warm Welcome

The Window Shop is conveniently located near the switchboard at the main hospital entrance. We're open Monday through Thursday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, and Fridays from 8:30 am to 2:00 pm. Come explore the treasures that await you! The Window Shop at Monadnock Community Hospital Monday to Thursday 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Fridays 8:30am to 2:00 pm Proudly run by volunteers since 1969 Proceeds from The Window Shop enhance patient care and support MCH employees and staff

A Legacy of Giving Back

The Window Shop, under the kind stewardship of our dedicated auxiliary volunteers, has been a pillar of support for MCH since its inception. All profits from the shop directly benefit the hospital. Over the decades, our volunteers have raised substantial funds that have been instrumental in improving patient care. Their contributions have facilitated projects like:
  • Electronic medication dispensing tracking program
  • Establishment of a comprehensive simulation lab for staff and EMT training
  • Acquisition of oversized gurneys for the operating room
  • Numerous upgrades to the Birthing Suite

More Than Just Patient Care

During the challenging times of the pandemic, the Window Shop pivoted its focus to show appreciation for MCH's hardworking staff. Proceeds were used to fund morale-boosting initiatives like homemade dinner raffles and other supportive programs. The Window Shop's legacy of giving also extends to the community's littlest members. For nearly two decades, the shop has donated an endearing tradition - approximately 300 onesie t-shirts to babies born at MCH each year!

A Team Effort

The Window Shop wouldn't be possible without the unwavering dedication of our amazing volunteers. Nancy Speeney, one of our volunteers, shares her heartfelt sentiment:

"Being a volunteer here is incredibly fulfilling and I truly look forward to coming in every day."

We invite you to visit the Window Shop, support our mission of compassionate care, and discover the joy of giving back to our community!
