Book Donation to Manchester Classrooms

December 17, 2022 dbelisle Leave a comment Literacy and Education Program

Wesley’s Way is proud to have recently donated 15 books to libraries in multiple schools throughout Manchester, NH.

The book is titled “We Could Go Anywhere” by Erin Slivka, whose daughter passed away earlier this year from a rare form of brain cancer called DIPG. She wrote this book as it was one of the bedtime stories that Erin would tell Ayla before bed. 100% of the proceeds from each and every book purchased goes directly to funding research for the fight to find a cure for DIPG.

Londonderry Rail Trail Sponsorship

November 21, 2022 dbelisle Leave a comment Parks and Playgrounds Program

As part of our Parks & Playgrounds program, Wesley’s Way Foundation has just become a sponsor of the Londonderry Rail Trail. We used to take walks as a family with Wesley on the rail trail near our home all the time, so this trail holds a dear place in our hearts, with so many good memories as a family.

Roland Belisle, Rose Belisle, Derek Belisle, and Lindsey Belisle from Wesley’s Way Foundation, along with Bob Rimol from Londonderry Trailways.

Our foundation is extremely proud to become a sponsor of the trail, as our sponsorship will help to maintain the existing trail and may help fund the ongoing trail way extension.
