ONE TOO MANY

My name is Jack DiZillo. I am 18 years old, and live in Manchester, New Hampshire. I am currently a  high school senior, and wanted to leave a positive impact on my community, before leaving for college.  Manchester ,New Hampshire, is home to one of the highest rates of heroin abuse per capita, nationwide.  The epidemic has affected many people throughout the state in variable ways. It is something that a young adult, growing up with siblings, and family in  Manchester, such as myself can not ignore. Used needles have been found in the streets and even the local parks. This is a devastating tragedy to many people, and  their loved ones, with connections to substance abuse. I have chosen to take initiative, to help unite the people of Manchester, as we raise awareness and  create hope for a bright, addiction free future.   All money I raise through this fund will be donated directly to  HOPE For New Hampshire Recovery.  We will be  coming together as a community for a candlelight vigil   on the evening of May 26th at the Derryfield Park in Manchester NH .  I hope you all can come  and join us!
