COAST
As a nonprofit Public Transportation system, COAST relies on community support to provide the services we operate. Many of the transportation-related grants COAST receives through the federal government require local match funds. Unrestricted donations from individuals and businesses allow COAST to bring federal dollars into New Hampshire and our region, amplifying the impact of these gifts.
Connected by COAST – Capital Campaign
COAST’s most urgent need is a new building to house our operation. An investment in COAST’s new facility is a down payment on the future, and has potential to be transformative for public transit in the region. The new facility will allow COAST to further drive and support the economic growth of the Seacoast.
