A Promise and a Commitment

For over 45 years, the medical practitioners of Derry Medical Center and Londonderry Family Practice have lived, worked and supported the southern New Hampshire community. Through local charitable sponsorships, health related events, and fundraisers, we have given back our time, talents and financial support in countless ways.

We’re proud to be a part our patient’s lives and to build not only a healthy family, but healthy generations of families throughout the region. As part of this ‘healthy generations’ philosophy, Derry Medical center and Londonderry Family Practice have partnered with several local and national organizations to invest in research, patient education, and finding a cure for some of the most prevalent diseases affecting our community.

The Susan G. Komen for the Cure®

The world’s largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures.

As part of our annual commitment, Derry Medical Center and Londonderry Family Practice support a team of workers, friends and family who come together to walk in the Susan G. Komen 3—Day for the Cure event in Boston, MA. As part of this sponsorship, we hold raffles and an annual silent auction gala. During the remainder of the year, we work to support the Foundation through patient education, fundraising and community events especially during breast cancer awareness month in October.

Diabetes

In partnership with Diabetes healthcare of New Hampshire and the American Diabetes Association, Derry Medical Center and Londonderry Family Practice work year-round to provide patient education, support and awareness of diabetes and its devastating effects on the body.

Cancer

Whether its disasters in far off places or flooding and ice storms right here at home, the American Red Cross is always there to offer support, emergency assistance, food and shelter.

Local Community Support

Our support doesn't stop with national partnerships, but actually begins with local community organizations. From the Londonderry Lancer Marching Band, to local baseball, football and other sporting organizations and school groups, Derry Medical Center has a strong tradition of giving back to the community we serve.

Derry Rail Trail Alliance

Derry Medical Center and Londonderry Family Practice both practice and promotes healthy living and is proud to sponsor the Derry Rail Trail in their pursuit of turning abandoned railways into a recreational trail for cyclists and pedestrians.
