Community Fund
The Bald Peak Community Fund is an advised fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. The Fund was established in 2001 to support charitable endeavors in the towns surrounding The Bald Peak Colony Club. This year will mark our tenth year of giving back to our local communities.
The 9th Annual Bald Peak Community FundFest, held last summer, was a great success and lots of fun was had by all!! The events, along with the many generous donations from members who could not participate that day, raised a total of $77,000.
Again this year we concentrated our giving on food and fuel assistance and services for children and the elderly. In 2010, The BPCF Advisory Committee gave $70,200 to nineteen organizations:
The Town of Tuftonboro Scholarship Fund
Wolfeboro Area Children's Center
The Sandwich Children's Center
Appalachian Mountain Teen Project
Child Advocacy Center of Carroll County
Wolfeboro Nursery School
Annie Forts UP Syndrome Fund
