2025 Goals:
The Lovering will continue to advocate for and serve any person who seeks comprehensive sexual and reproductive health care in 2025. We will maintain and seek to grow high-quality health care services for patients who may not have access to care due to systemic inequities. These systemic factors most often impact LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and low-income individuals, youth and cisgender women. Because of the Lovering, individuals will have the knowledge and resources to make informed decisions about their reproductive and sexual health, centered around bodily autonomy and compassion, measured by patient access and timely care, patient satisfaction and health outcomes.
Fundraising Events:
- Events: Champions for Choice (spring), Cheers for Choice (fall)
The Lovering hosts two annual events and both are focused on sharing with our supporters how we are leveraging their support to impact our community. Our Fall Cheers for Choice event is an opportunity to celebrate our collective impact, stay connected, and have fun.
- Fundraisers: We work with businesses and individuals to create energetic, community-based events and fundraising campaigns. We participate two annual appeals and in NH Gives. If you have an idea for a fundraiser, please contact us!
