Hey everyone! It's time for another menstrual care drive! We have tons of regular tampons but are almost out of supers. We have also received a few other requests for adult diapers without tabs and regular pads.

Have an overgrown stash of plastic grocery bags? We need those, too! Drop some off with the rest of your donations right in the box, or bring things directly to your nearest free store.

Have a large quantity of donations or furniture items? Send us a message here or email us to coordinate!

Hey everyone! Summer is winding down and so is yard sale season. If you have things to clear out of your space, we want them!

These items are our biggest needs right now; clothing is a top priority for our stores in the valley! Check out our website to find your nearest drop box location.

Hi everyone. As you may have seen, the City of Concord has approved sweeps of the homeless encampments in Healy Park and other surrounding parks. These sweeps started last week at Healy Park and are planning to continue next week at Water Street Bridge.

Hello everyone! We have an update to our Manchester drop box locations!

The green beautiful had their final days of business this past weekend and will no longer be open to host a drop box. We hope you all got out to have one last delicious cafe drink and say goodbye 💚

Hi everyone! The Green Beautiful Cafe had their last day of business today. We just want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to them as they end this cycle.

Good morning! We have some urgent clothing items that we're looking to secure for this weekend's stores! Shorts, T-shirts, and sandals are desperately needed!! It's HOT and our neighbors need clothing suitable to stay cool in these high temps.

We are actively looking for additional spots in Nashua and Manchester, send us a message if you have any leads! We will provide the box and pick it up regularly, all we need is space. Thank you!!

It's hotter than hot out there! Yesterday and today we have been doing emergency heat relief distros and plan to continue. However, we need your help! Please bring bottled water to Witchlight Oracle in Concord, Soel Sistas in Nashua, or the YWCA in Manchester during their business hours

Thank you for getting us to 4k followers! If you don't know much about us, here's a little intro to NHMARF. If you don't know, we run five free stores across New Hampshire, in Dover, Rochester, Manchester, Concord, and Nashua. There are like food pantries but with a broader selection of items.

Hello to MANCHESTER! The Manch location ONLY at this time is seeking more menstrual care supplies. Pads, tampons (no cardboard please), cups, disks... Whatever you have, we're looking to share! Our neighbors deserve to be comfortable and hygienic while going through their cycles

Hi everyone! We've gotten a lot of rain recently, and a lot of our unhoused neighbors have been flooded out of their tents. Weather aside, people are constantly dealing with gear that's wearing out and breaking due to heavy use, being stolen, or being destroyed during sweeps or by hostile neighbors.
May 7, 2025 at 10:43 PM
Hello everyone! We get a lot of questions about the store locations, so here's an update! Every location is accepting new volunteers and we love to meet new people. There's a few other mutual aid groups that aren't part of NHMARF, but if you live closer to them, please check them out. See you soon!!

Happy Earth Day! We're looking forward to warm weather and greener days. We're also interested in educating and growing a connection to the earth and to food sovereignty in our communities. We want to help people reduce waste, share more, and grow plants.
