Building Home Building Hope: Strengthening Southern New Hampshire, Expanding to Derry
We are thrilled to announce the expansion of Family Promise of Southern New Hampshire to Derry, NH. This exciting development allows us to build capacity and provide a warm safe home to more families experiencing homelessness throughout Western Rockingham County. The expansion is in addition to the Nashua, NH location serving Hillsborough County.
With this expansion, we are dedicated to our integral case management, service delivery, including career search, family education, and financial literacy programs. Our goal is to empower families to regain stability and achieve long-term success. We are grateful for the community’s ongoing support and look forward to making a positive impact. Together, we can build a brighter future for families in need.
We will continue to provide updates on this web page with the progress!

Your Support Changes Lives
A Dad’s Success Story
Chris, a single dad of a teenage son, received a great opportunity three months ago through BAE Systems, CNC Machining Course at Nashua Community College. Chris had two barriers in his way for over a decade, prohibiting him from moving forward. His goal has always been to return to the workforce as a CNC Machinist. Chris on his graduation day, getting back to the work he was doing before life fell apart and he currently has three job offers straight out of the class. We are very proud of Chris’s accomplishment!
Angie’s Success Story
Angie, a single mom, successfully graduated from Family Promise of Southern New Hampshire, with her three girls. Bless This Home, an organization whose mission is to assist women and their families, helped establish the Family’s new home with furnishings and decorations; most importantly blessed the home with a prayer. Angie said “I Feel like I’ve lived here longer already. The blessing of God is so pure. They even brought me a cross! I cried with joy when I saw that, more than all the rest.”
