Giving Back to Community
Next Article
Non-profit groups are at the core of Concord’s beloved cultural and historic heritage. They preserve our history, foster our creativity, educate, inform, and even feed our community. These are the people and volunteers that serve Concord year-round, and our town would be so much less without them. So please remember to include Concord’s non-profit organizations in your year-end giving.
