News Update: The World Affairs Council of New Hampshire will host a speaker instead of the Apple Hill Chamber music group on December 3 because one of the musicians was injured in an accident.

Steve Martineau, Director Friends Forever International will speak Monday, December 3 from 6 to 7:15 PM at UNH Manchester, 88 Commercial St. in the multipurpose room. Martineau will discuss his group’s work within New Hampshire and communities around the world that work to ensure young adults have the ability to build their leadership skills for a better tomorrow. . Tickets are $10, and are free to WACNH and Fulbright members, and to UNH students and staff.
