John Morison, Chair of Hitchner
Manufacturing, is the leader of a $3 Million Campaign designed to raise
necessary funds for the expansion project for the Boys and Girls Club of
Souhegan Valley. The purpose of the
expansion is to increase the Club’s capacity to serve additional young people
by adding a gymnasium and new teen center to its current facility. The Club will also redesign existing program
space to increase program impact and improve security.
Assisting John in the
campaign are Paul Amato-Alene Candles, Don Brezinski-Southern New Hampshire University, Marc Chareth-Edward Jones Investments, Allise de Smet-Jay Steel, Jay
Dinkel-Enterprise Bank, Lew Dokmo-Independent Defense & Space Professional, Mike Tule-McClane, Middleton, Alan Woolfson-Monarch Instrument and Seth Zeigler-BigPicWellness.
While commenting on the
importance of this fundraising effort, Morison said “a successful campaign will mean that the
Club will have the added space to serve more young people in our communities,
an outcome that is critically important to all of us.”
While the campaign leadership
team has been meeting for almost a year, Morison announced the public phase of
the campaign to a group of early donors at a reception in February. To date the campaign has raised $2.1 million
or 70% of its goal.
