Earlier this month, Wanakee joined hundreds of New Hampshire nonprofits for NH Gives—a powerful 24-hour fundraising event celebrating generosity across our state. Between June 11–12, 2025, 642 organizations came together to inspire giving and community spirit. Thanks to your incredible support, Wanakee raised $43,560 to fund our brand-new dock system at the waterfront!

Because of you and the help of a generous matching donor, this project will enhance safety, accessibility, and joy for every camper who dips their toes in our beloved Lake Pemigewasset. From canoeing to stargazing, from picnic tables to campfires, your generosity continues to make Wanakee’s mission possible. You didn’t just help us replace our aging docks; you helped launch countless new adventures filled with laughter, growth, and grace.

We’re deeply grateful for the many friends, families, and alumni who shared, gave, and cheered us on throughout NH Gives. Together, we’re building a stronger future for generations of campers to come. Thank you for being part of Wanakee’s story, and for helping us build the future starting at the water’s edge.

Your generosity during NH Gives reminds us how powerful our community can be when we come together with purpose and love. But the spirit of giving doesn’t have to stop there! If you’d like to continue supporting Wanakee’s mission year-round, visit www.wanakee.org/donate to make a one-time or recurring gift. Every donation—big or small—helps us keep camp safe, joyful, and full of life for generations to come.
