Nashua Children’s Home has been serving youth and families in our region for over a century, providing residential care, educational support, transitional living, and family services to children whose circumstances have placed them at-risk. This gala serves as a powerful evening, bringing together people who share our belief that every child deserves safety, stability, and opportunity.

Your presence and generosity will help make everything we do possible in support of our mission. Whether it’s offering individual therapy to help a child heal from trauma, supporting families through counseling, creating joyful activities that build connection, providing a classroom where learning comes to life, or guiding a young adult as they step into independence—your support makes it all possible. At NCH, we provide:

  • 24/7 residential home and care for children and teens in need of a safe and stable environment, with the goal of family reunification whenever possible.
  • Special education services for students who’s needs require an individualized learning environment—some of whom live with us, while others are bused in daily and return home after school.
  • Support for young adults aging out of care, through our Transitional Living Program that offers guidance, housing, and independence-building tools to prevent homelessness at such a young age.

Wondering what to wear?

We'd love to see you embrace the glamour and elegance of the Roaring Twenties with Gatsby-inspired attire! Think vintage suits, flapper-style dresses, sequins, fringe, feathers, pearls, art deco accessories, for the men, bow ties, suspenders and hats are also great! Also, don't stress about it, just come looking sharp & have fun!
