EXETER, N.H. (AP) - A nonprofit retirement community in Exeter is ready to raise more than $100,000. Now it just needs a good cause.
RiverWoods is seeking applications for its next fundraising gala auction. The community will pick a nonprofit group in the Exeter area to partner with. Leading up the gala, the community will organize a “RiverWoods Reach Out” day for staff and residents to volunteer at the organization.
Over the past 10 auctions, RiverWoods has raised more than $600,000. Last year, more than 400 people attended an auction that generated $120,000 to benefit Saint Vincent de Paul Exeter, which provides food, health care, employment assistance and other services to those struggling in poverty.
Applications for the next event are due Feb. 28. The winner will be chosen in April.
