Support Independence
Granite State Independent Living is honored to include individuals, organizations and companies throughout New Hampshire on its roster of Individual and Corporate Members. We invite you to become a member of our award-winning organization as well.
We are proud to have been named Business New Hampshire Magazine's 2007 Non-Profit of the Year. Our Board, staff and volunteers are committed and dedicated to advancing the Independent Living philosophy. In October 2006, we were named one of ten finalists in the Peter F. Drucker Awards for Non-Profit Innovation.
Granite State Independent Living's vision is a New Hampshire that includes equal opportunity for all residents, a society that judges all its citizens by the content of their character and not by a characteristic of their being, and a culture that fosters the best in its humanity so that everyone may live their lives to the fullest and be the most that they choose to be. Your investment in our organization will achieve results--not only for over 200,000 New Hampshire residents living with disabilities today, but for future generations.
Member Benefits
Individual Members receive a subscription to the Granite Slate, our quarterly newletter; a vote at our Annual Meeting; and frequent updates about the results their investment is supporting independent living in New Hampshire. Corporate Members receive the same benefits and may also participate in our Co-Branding Program, which affirms their commitment to independent living and provides an excellent statewide brand awareness vehicle. Members that contribute at Council levels receive invitations to events, forums and the annual Council Summit.
