History |
|
| |
UShareNH was
founded in 2007 by Keith Marsh and
Nick Manha to help build a
communication bridge between NH
State agencies and community
organizations with social service
missions. These two
pastors; one with an IT background,
the other experienced in working
with state government as a foster
and adoptive parent, designed UShareNH as a means to connect needs
and resources among state, community
and faith-based organizations.
The
beta testing of the website has been
very successful and UShareNH has
gained the support of a number of state
agencies and community organizations.
UShareNH's success is based on using
technology to connect people
with similar service missions but
who might not otherwise work
together. The
Verizon
tagline "It's the Network" is very
true in the field of social
services. We want to make it
easier to share resources in New
Hampshire. We will do it by
building new links in the social
services network. The name
says it all U Share NH.
Please consider clicking on
the link below and become a UShare
member.
There is no cost to join and
it may open a door to the adventure
of a lifetime!
