Exeter Hospital is hosting its annual Kites Against Cancer event on Sunday, June 7, near the Oceanfront Pavilion at Hampton Beach. This free, public gathering from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. provides a meaningful opportunity for the community to come together.
Attendees can honor or remember loved ones by personalizing kites, available for a $10 donation at the event or the Exeter Hospital Gift Shop. The funds raised will support the hospital's Beyond the Rainbow Fund.
This fund offers essential financial assistance to cancer patients, helping with non-medical expenses like groceries, utilities, and housing. By alleviating these daily costs, the fund allows patients and their families to concentrate on healing and recovery.
