 Imagine a Greater Seacoast where a diversified housing market allows police officers, teachers, childcare workers and others, to find safe and decent homes they can afford in the towns where they work. You can help the Housing Partnership do just that.
The Housing Partnership seeks volunteers to help out with some bulk mailings. If you have a couple hours to spare, we can use your time in processing bulk mailings or stuffing envelopes. No special technical skills are needed. This is a great opportunity for any responsible individual, to make a big impact for a worthy cause. For more information, see our contact information below.

Overall Experience 
Volunteer Turned Intern Turned Staff
|
Initially I was impressed by the mission and the achievements of this organization. My interaction with the executives and staff, through my volunteer experience, was very positive. I was then able to complete an academic internship with the organization which resulted in my being offered a permanent position-I gladly accepted. I am proud to be a part of an organization whose goals and activities focus on the very important issue of affordable housing.
