Bridges: Domestic & Sexual Violence Support

Kelly Mann was a young mother of 3 children in the Greater Nashua community who was taken from our community by her husband. In 2006, Kelly's daughters and friends formed a relationship with Bridges, and started the Kelly Mann Memorial Run/Walk, an annual fundraiser that raised over $300,000 for Bridges to provide free, confidential services to victims and survivors of domestic and sexual violence. 

In 2023, honoring Kelly's legacy was reimagined. Kelly loved bettering herself through educational opportunities, making the creation of a scholarship fund in her name a natural next step. Through this fund, Kelly's memory and legacy will live on. Your generous NH Gives donation supports the longevity of the Kelly Mann Memorial Scholarship Fund!
