The Anne Zachos Fund
This fund was named after longtime board member and cultural leader, Anne Zachos, to serve as a source of unrestricted funds allowing New Hampshire Humanities to fund their highest priority, with the greatest flexibility. It funds excellence in staffing and program management, and unexpected programmatic opportunities.
