A Note From Our President  For more than 50 years, the Seacoast Newcomers Club has been an active and valued part of the Seacoast community, offering women a wide range of activities and meaningful opportunities to build lasting friendships. Each year, we are pleased to support a local charitable organization, giving back to the community we call home. Our dedicated members are the heart of this club, and their commitment is what allows it to flourish. I am honored to serve as part of this exceptional organization.

No need to register, just come! | Community Service  Our Place NH is dedicated to providing supportive, secure, and fully staffed housing solutions for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who require ongoing assistance. Their mission is to ensure a smooth transition of care for these adults from their aging parents to a stable, reliable, and compassionate environment, especially when their daily living needs exceed what their families can provide. Each year the Seacoast Newcomers Club selects a non-profit organization to support through a portion of our annual dues and with fundraising activities run by our organization. We are delighted to announce that Our Place NH has been chosen by our Board of Directors as SNC’s beneficiary for 2025-2026.  | Special Interest Groups Special Interest Groups, Luncheons, Programs, and Coffees are just a sample of the activities for making connections that we offer.
