There’s something special about the Mount Washington Valley that keeps people deeply connected to their community. Whether it’s a neighbor shoveling after a storm, a friendly face delivering meals, or a warm hello at the library, the Gibson Center for Senior Services, or one of our many local historical societies — this region thrives on kindness.

What many people don’t realize is that volunteering doesn’t just help others — it helps you, too. Giving back is one of the most powerful ways to stay mentally sharp, physically active, socially engaged and emotionally fulfilled as we age.
