MANCHESTER, NH – A card-packing event was held Nov. 15 at Eversource NH. Joining the group of employees and friends were Manchester Mayor Jay Ruais and Police Chief Allen Aldenberg, both of whom said they have been deployed with the Army National Guard over the years and on the receiving end of similar heart-felt greeting cards. (see video above for more on that).

Holiday Cards for our Military Challenge has become a tradition here in New Hampshire. Started in 2003 by Dr. Laura Landerman-Garber, this is the 20th year that the community has come through with thousands of cards for those who serve and sacrifice – and who won’t be home for the holidays.
