Under Harrow’s Leadership, Organization Expanded Fundraising Base, Acquired Land, Multiplied Amount of Small Projects Tackled 

Nashua – Last month, Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity’s Board of Directors elected a new President.  Jerry Harrow, who had served as president as long as the organization’s bylaws allowed, first volunteered for the organization in 1997. Since then has served as Treasurer and Vice President for the organization.  He will serve one more year as a member of the Board of Directors. 

Under Harrow’s presidency the organization grew significantly – he concludes his presidency as the organization begins to plan construction projects spanning three consecutive years: the organization has just announced that they will build a duplex in Milford for two families that have already been selected by the organization’s Family Selection Committee.  Plans for properties in Nashua and Wilton are currently on the organization’s drawing board as well.
