ROCHESTER, NH – As the holiday season approaches, the Rochester, NH Scanner Alerts Media Group is once again stepping up to support local families in need. With a successful history of two years behind it, the program is set to expand thanks to the broadening of the group's coverage area across New Hampshire and parts of Southern Maine and Essex County, Massachusetts. Sign-ups for their Christmas Wishlist Program started on August 20, 2024, and will run through October 1, 2024.

This charitable initiative is part of the group's mission to foster community support and provide tangible aid during the festive season. Families interested in receiving holiday assistance can register through the Rochester, NH Scanner Alerts app, accessible via their website. The app features a "Christmas Help Sign-Up" icon adorned with a Santa hat for easy navigation.

The program rules are designed to ensure fairness and effective distribution of resources:

• No Adding Items After Posting: Once a wishlist is public, it cannot be modified.
• Limited Selection: Due to high demand, not all applicants will be selected, focusing resources on fulfilling as many wishlists as possible.
• Request Modesty: Applicants are advised to keep their requests reasonable; excessive asks may lead to disqualification.
• Priority to Unassisted: Families not receiving help from other programs will be prioritized to maximize the program’s impact.

The following is a list of their Facebook pages where updates, clues for location-based events like scavenger hunts, and community alerts are regularly posted:
