The AUNE community offers support to the local community in various ways throughout the year. A recent round-up of the 2015 efforts indicated a generous offering of both time and money as it benefited the Community Kitchen in Keene, New Hampshire:
- 526 pounds of non-perishable food
- 54 cans of pet food
- 79 winter hats
- 58 mittens & gloves
- 40 scarves
- 2 pairs of boots
- 5 coats
- About 4 bags of stationery for Back-to-School
- Also, several individuals served dinner once a month, handed out food boxes during the holidays, and helped sort and organize food
In addition, AUNE’s 2015 Winterfest raised $780.00 to benefit Keene’s Hundred Nights Shelter, a community organization committed to providing a warm, safe shelter to those in need from 7pm to 7am during the winter months.
