  • 9 trucks in the humanitarian aid convoy
  • 18 TONS of food to be delivered

During that time, Common Man for Ukraine’s grassroots nonprofit team has delivered nearly 2 MILLION pounds of food to Ukrainian children living in orphanages and safe houses in the war zone. 

We’ve provided trauma counseling programming to more than 500 children during that time as well.

It’s on to the State Senate for another try at legalizing marijuana sales in New Hampshire

The Rochester man shot during an argument with a neighbor over snowblowing, is now in critical condition in the hospital

And unnamed school employee in Newmarket is the target of an investigation for alleged possession of child sexual abuse images.

Both Maine Senators Susan Collins and Angus King want to see brain scans for the military

Monday is the 128 Boston marathon from Hopkinton.

Congratulations to Ruby & Peter! They were the winners of the VIP Police Package from the New Franklin School PTO fundraising auction. The package  included a ride to school in a police car, a tour of the station, and a trading card display case.
