Join us for AFSP New Hampshire's 2nd Annual Night of Hope Gala and Awards Celebration.
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 event includes a plated dinner, live and silent auctions, music and recognition of Outstanding Suicide Prevention Champions in New Hampshire.
The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) leads the fight against suicide. Proceeds from the Night of Hope will allow us to fund scientific research, educate the public, advocate for public policies, and support survivors of suicide loss and those affected by suicide.
