TFMoran Sponsored FIRST Robotics Team Reaches New England FIRST District Championship!

TFMoran is sponsoring Hopkinton High School and John Stark Regional High School’s FIRST Robotics Team OzRam 1922 for the 2024 Season. The team consists of students from Weare, Henniker, and Hopkinton, participating in the global FIRST Robotics Program. Each season, the team builds a robot from materials including mechanical gears, motors, and software to compete with other regional and worldwide teams in the yearly FIRST Robotics Challenge.

Recently, the team competed in the Greater Boston District Event in Revere, MA on March 23rd and 24th. The team competed against 38 other teams from around New England, showcasing their robot to perform game-scoring tasks in a time-limited period. During the first match in the quarterfinals, the match alliance (3 teams) scored the highest combined score in the world!

OzRam finished in 6th place, securing their place to compete in the NE FIRST District Championship, which hosts top teams for a weekend at The Big E in West Springfield, MA, from April 3rd through 6th.

This program relies on financial sponsorships to support team activities. Sponsorship allows the team to attend local, regional (and hopefully international) events, update components for their robots, equip their lab, and help promote STEM!

Best of luck at the NE FIRST District Championships, OzRam 1922!

Dylan Cruess Participates in Special Olympics of New Hampshire Penguin Plunge!

Dylan Cruess participated in the Penguin Plunge on February 11th, 2024. This fundraiser for Special Olympics New Hampshire (SONH) took place at Hampton Beach, NH, where thousands of participants plunged into the freezing water of the Atlantic.

Dylan, dressed as a TFM surveyor (hard hat and all!) was among the first in his group to make it into the water, running and jumping in with a belly flop! Dylan raised $695 for SONH, whose mission is to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. These continuing opportunities help develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy, and participate in the sharing of gifts, skills, and friendships with their families, other Special Olympics athletes, and the community.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the event, supporting the mission of Special Olympics New Hampshire.

Supporting NHBCA in the Art of Healing

The New Hampshire Business Committee for the Arts (NHBCA) is collaborating with NH Hospital to commission an artist to design a mural for their staff breakroom. TFMoran and other local businesses are contributing to help bring “The Art of Healing” to NH Hospital.

The NHBCA has collected donations to create a serene scene that provides hospital staff with an aesthetically pleasing, respite-inspired space. The artwork will promote self-care and well-being for their community of caregivers and support staff who dedicate their lives to the care of some of New Hampshire’s most vulnerable populations.

The NHBCA is looking to do our part (in a modest way) to address the mental health crisis that affects individuals, families, communities and the workplace. These frontline workers are dedicated to serving our fellow citizens and we believe they need to be recognized for the value they bring to not only this segment of the population but to all who live and work in New Hampshire. The arts naturally promote a more humane society and are an essential tool for creating a greater sense of wellbeing for all, whether it is through direct participation in or appreciation of arts and culture.

NH Business Commitee for the Arts

The mural design is inspired by input from the NHH staff who utilize the breakroom. The goal of the project is to imbue the room with a sense of relaxation, rejuvenation, and refreshment.

We envision our New Hampshire Hospital staff breakroom to be a pleasant place where employees gather to share a coffee, have a chat and unwind from the daily stresses of their workload.

Other businesses supporting the project include Northeast Delta Dental, Orr & Reno, Dartmouth Health, Lavallee Brensinger Architects, and Baker, Newman, Noyes.

TFMoran Kicks Off United Way Employee Fundraising Campaign

TFMoran has partnered with the New Hampshire Chapter of United Way in kicking off our third annual Employee Fundraising Campaign!

TFMoran held a lunchtime party on Monday, November 13th to kick off our annual fundraising campaign. We were joined by Holly Maki of Granite United Way and Robert Tourigny of NeighborWorks Southern New Hampshire. Holly Maki spoke to us about the resources Granite United Way offers to help those in need throughout the region, and where the money goes. Robert Tourigny also spoke to us about NeighborWorks Southern New Hampshire, a non-profit that TFM has worked with on multiple projects, bringing affordable housing to Manchester and the southern New Hampshire region.

This employee fundraising campaign makes it easy to donate through Granite United Way’s website by making a payroll pledge. Employees can have their preferred amount automatically deducted from their pay to contribute to the non-profit cause of their choice.

United Way helps more than 48 million people a year by boosting education, economic solutions, and health resources in 95% of U.S. communities and 37 countries and territories.

Last year, TFMoran employees donated close to $2,000 through this campaign!
