Mental illness is something that affects millions of Americans. It is also one of the major causes of drug and alcohol abuse, homelessness and incarceration. Fortunately there are places out there that can help those affected. As with most social services, there never seems to be enough funding for these great institutions.

The Greater Nashua Community has played a crucial role in Zimmermanns becoming, and remaining, a staple in southern New Hampshire for the past 50 years. As we count our blessings, we feel compelled to give back to our community and do what we can to help support this very high profile issue, which is affecting so many of our friends and neighbors.

After recently seeing firsthand how quickly, and thorough Harbor Homes of Nashua responded to help a dear friend of mine in crisis, we have chosen Harbor Homes, a local non-profit organization dedicated to helping people, to be the recipient of this years’ Zimmermanns “Carves for a Cause” charity.

From now until Thanksgiving weekend, Zimmermanns will be donating $5 from every ski or snowboard tune-up to Harbor Homes. So come down soon and get a great tune-up on your equipment so you are ready to hit the slopes ASAP, plus, you’ll be helping us send a good sized check to help this great local organization!

Are you part of a large group or ski club? We would love to offer you special discounts on your tune services, and we will still donate $5 for every tune brought in.
