New Generation • 603-436-4989
New Generation, a Catholic Charities program, is seeking retail gift cards (e.g. Market Basket, Target, Walmart) and gas cards for participants of its after-care program, which helps single mothers and children who faced homelessness get their lives back on track and build self-sufficient futures. While mothers in the after-care program have moved into permanent housing from New Generation’s emergency shelter and transitional living program, they are still navigating common financial challenges of living independently as they rebuild their lives. Gas cards help provide transportation to jobs, child care and other daily needs, while retail cards help them purchase food, clothing and other essentials for their new beginnings.
