Harry Gregg Foundation 

Crotched Mountain > Foundation > HARRY GREGG FOUNDATION                                                       

Overview 

The Harry Gregg Foundation provides financial assistance to improve the lives of people in New Hampshire with physical, intellectual, or emotional disabilities.  It was established in 1989 in memory of Harry Gregg (1883-1972), founder of the Crotched Mountain Rehabilitation Center.   Since then, the Foundation has made more than 5,000 grants totaling almost $2 million.  Funds may be requested for many purposes including:

  • The costs of non-reimbursed medical or therapy treatments not covered by insurance or other programs;
  • Specialty equipment services or supplies;
  • Modifications to living area, work site or vehicle;
  • Respite services to the recipient or caregivers;
  • Costs of attending a special camp;
  • Recreational activities or
  • Vocational education or driver training tuition assistance

Overview Harry Gregg Foundation 2011 Recreation Funds Expended

As of May 4th, Harry Gregg Recreation Funds were fully expended for the year. Funds for recreation are allocated each year in January, are reviewed on a weekly basis starting in January, and always go quickly. This year, in addition to a block grant to Camp Allen, we made 97 grants to individuals for camp, fitness memberships, music lessons, karate classes and other recreational activities. If you missed out on funds this year, we hope you will apply for funds in 2012 as early in the year as you can.

Applications for HGF funds to attend Camp Allen are now administered by Camp Allen. Please do not submit applications for funds to attend Camp Allen through this website. Camp Allen will process all HGF applications for Camp Allen tuition.


Harry Gregg Foundation Announces Funds for Lakes Region

The Harry Gregg Foundation is pleased to announce a $5,000 grant from the Samuel P. Pardoe Foundation to assist residents with disabilities from the Lakes Region.

“Like many non-profits, the Harry Gregg Foundation is challenged more than ever to meet the needs of all the people who seek our assistance. The Pardoe Foundation grant will certainly help us toward our goal to provide meaningful support to the Lakes Region’s most vulnerable citizens. We are extremely grateful to the Pardoe Foundation for this award.” said HGF president Don Shumway. 

The Samuel P. Pardoe Foundation was founded in 1989 and takes a special interest in programs that provide educational and economic opportunities for underprivileged persons.
