Positive Tracks calls New Hampshire home…
To that end, we’re thrilled to have the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation fueling our NH-based programs as a member of the Positive Tracks Partnership Alliance.
New Hampshire Charitable Foundation supports Positive Tracks Camps & Clinics designed to provide the tools necessary for young people to use their own physical power and a sports lens to develop a generous spirit and healthy body. Guided by our Sweat For Good Curriculum, Positive Tracks launches its first multi-day Camps and Clinics beginning in May 2016.
Equally exciting, Positive Tracks was recently nominated as a finalist for the Entrepreneurs’ Fund of New Hampshire AMP Award, a program of New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. Taking place at the DEN Innovation Center in Hanover, NH on May 5th, local entrepreneurs and business leaders help coach and develop innovative nonprofit ideas. Positive Tracks will work with EFNH members to share Positive Tracks’ U23 Challenge Program with Upper Valley entrepreneurs.
“Positive Tracks is thrilled to be an EFNH AMP-Award finalist along with so many incredible NH nonprofits. Having the opportunity for local entrepreneurs to review and help guide the rollout of our new U23 Challenge Program is beyond exciting,” shared Ray Shedd, Director of Partnerships & Marketing at Positive Tracks.
Currently in a pilot phase, the U23 Challenge Program provides an innovative youth-powered pathway that combines getting active with giving back to enroll kids – as partners, participants, and leaders – in creating a better world starting with themselves.
“The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation is proud to support the work of Positive Tracks,” says Melinda Mosier, senior program officer at the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. “They have an impressive approach to getting young people involved in giving back through physical activity that promotes meaningful participation in civic life, personal health and leadership skills.”
