Kingswood Leasing donates to Dover Children's Home on recommendation of Cafe on the Corner


This Christmas, instead of spending hundreds of dollars on corporate gifts and Christmas cards, Kingswood Leasing will be donating gift cards to each of the children at the Dover Children’s Home. Having recently joined the Dover business community, Kingswood Leasing decided to give back to their new home town.

President of Kingswood Leasing, Clifford Metcalfe Jr., struck up a conversation while sipping coffee at Café on the Corner in downtown Dover, NH (the best coffee in town) where a Christmas tree stands for donations to the Dover Children’s Home. The owners of Café on the Corner, Ralph and Linda Tripodi, have been supporters of the home for a number of years. Thinking this a wonderful idea, Metcalfe inquired of the owners and they directed him to talk to the Executive Director of Dover Children’s Home, Donna Coraluzzo. After talking with her, it was determined that the most immediate need, given their recent budget cuts, is financial donations in any form (cash, checks, stocks, gift cards, etc.).

Dover Children’s Home is a non-profit, intermediate-level residential treatment program designed to provide a wide array of community-based services for boys and girls, ages 12-20. Dover Children’s Home strives to provide children and families with as many opportunities as possible to experience success and personal growth. The Home provides a structured living environment in which the children are encouraged to develop and utilize appropriate behaviors and social skills. For over 117 years, Dover Children’s Home has successfully helped families and children in the Seacoast area.

Kingswood Leasing invites the community to help this great organization during this Christmas Holiday and throughout the year. Anyone who wishes can make a donation by using Pay Pal through their website at www.doverchildrenshome.org, drop off or mail donations to Dover Children's Home at 207 Locust Street, Dover, NH 03820. Call 603-742-4289, ext. 12 with any questions. The Dover Children’s Home is a non-profit, so all donations are tax deductible.

Kingswood Leasing has over 20 years experience in providing equipment leasing and financing to businesses in New Hampshire and nation wide. If you would like to learn more, visit www.kingswoodleasing.com.
