Planting Hope: The Mixed Border Gives Back

Sometimes we have to let go of the reluctance to promote the organizations that we support personally or as a business: now is not the time to be shy or reluctant about giving back to the community. It is about helping in whatever way is possible…

Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.  ~William James

The Nashua Soup Kitchen and Shelter now serves more than 250 dinners each night for families and individuals. More than food, they provide Backpacks for (the) Back to School Program and a Birthday Room. Offering “new toys and gifts for children having a birthday who are staying in our shelters or whose families have no resources to celebrate it”. For more information on how you can help visit: www.nsks.org

Nashua Pastoral Care Center's mission is to offer support and provide services to assist individuals and families transition from crisis to self-sufficiency. The Mixed Border provided design services, plants, and mulch for one of the transitional housing homes. Looking at a garden provides hope.

Community Hospice House cares for families as loved ones are traveling on another part of life’s journey. The Mixed Border is helping with the garden renovations at the Community Hospice House.
