National Night Out

Thank you for joining us.

The first Tuesday of every August we celebrate a night of warmth, empowerment, and community connection as we give away up to 700 backpacks full of supplies and essentials for students and families in Rochester, NH annually. Proudly partnering with Rochester NH Police Department.

Please take a moment below to view the photos from our photo booth, and years past.

August 2025 was our 10th formal year assisting RPD in this wonderful event.

We have now successfully donated over 4500 backpacks to students in need

totaling over $350,000 in value in the past decade.

All because of YOU. Thank you!

Mission

Help provide a wholesome and stigma free environment for students of all ages, demographics, and socioeconomic standards to enjoy a family friendly event while obtaining a backpack full of modern day school supplies, in preparation for the upcoming school year.

After 10 years of successful events at the Rochester Common, National Night Out hosted by Rochester Police Department successfully navigated many obstacles to host this years event at Spaulding High school. With an estimated turn out of 3000 - 4000 individuals throughout as a celebrated success.
