Community Action Partnership of Strafford County
We invite you to consider Community Action Partnership's fuel assistance program, Gift of Warmth supporting the Emergency Fuel Assistance Program which relies on private donations to help struggling families keep warm in the winter.
Dover Dems invites us all to make a personal contribution this year, perhaps in remembrance of a kind, generous soul. Donate HERE. Thank you.
