On June 18, I will be taking on the 2022 Delta Dental Mount Washington Road Race. This one has been on my bucket list for a while...I secured a spot two years ago, and then COVID hit. I had spine surgery the following year. Here's hoping 2022's the charm.
In addition to challenging myself on the 7.6 mile, 4,650 vertical-foot course, I will be raising money for Coos County Family Health Services. Your donation will help provide essential dental care for children and adults living in the rural communties north of Pinkham Notch, and it will make the experience of reaching the summit on June 18th that much more meaningful. Thank you!
2022 Delta Dental Mount Washington Road Race
After many years of support, Northeast Delta Dental became the title sponsor of the Mount Washington Road Race in 2012. Since then, the strong partnership between Northeast Delta Dental and the Mt. Washington Auto Road, bolstered by the Auto Road’s ongoing commitment to local communities, has resulted in annual donations totaling over $175,000 to Coös County Family Health Services (CCFHS).
CCFHS is a nonprofit, community-based organization dedicated to improving the health and well-being of North Country residents, regardless of income or insurance status.
“The support we’ve received from Northeast Delta Dental and the Mt. Washington Auto Road has made it possible for us to provide dental care for many North Country residents who would have otherwise gone without,” said Ken Gordon, chief operating officer at CCFHS.
CCFHS has been helping to provide families with affordable health care since 1974, and has grown to become one of the largest rural Federally Qualified Health Centers in northern New England.
Our goal for 2022 is to raise $50,000 for rural dental care north of Pinkham Notch. Run for health!
We're a nonprofit, community-based organization dedicated to improving the health and well-being of North Country residents, regardless of income or insurance status. We offer a broad range of health and social services to children and adults including primary care, pediatrics, women's health, podiatry, behavioral health, oral health, and programs that address the needs of survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.
Words really can't express our deep appreciation for your support. Over the years, these dollars have made an incredibly positive impact on the lives of hundreds of area residents. As in past years, we'll use the funds to provide care for those without dental insurance. We will also dedicate some of these dollars to support our work with children enrolled in the local Headstart (pre-school) Program. — Ken Gordon, Chief Executive Officer of Coös County Family Health Services.
