Founder’s Legacy Fund
an initiative to ensure the longevity of the Granite State Ambassadors program.
Please join Peter, Bill & Judi by making a gift to honor their legacy and the impact it has had on the tourism industry and individuals – both volunteers and travelers alike.
Championed by our Founders, the Founder’s Legacy Fund will make an additional contribution for donations received that name Granite State Ambassadors as a beneficiary of the donor’s will or trust. Donor gifts will become part of our endowment to sustain Granite State Ambassadors in the future, and the Founder’s Legacy Fund will be available to the general operating fund to sustain the organization now.
In 1996, our Founders, Judi Window, a passionate NH resident and our first managing director; Peter Morgan, a longtime hotelier; and Bill Petersen, former dean of the hospitality school at New Hampshire College worked tirelessly to launch our great organization. Granite State Ambassadors was based on the simple premise that guests should be greeted by a knowledgeable, friendly “information specialist” when they arrived at the airport in Manchester or our statewide welcome centers. Over 25 years later, Granite State Ambassadors has certified over 2000 residents and maintains a trained and engaged volunteer force of over 350 who serve over 20,000 hours annually at more than 60 welcome centers and events statewide. In addition, Granite State Ambassadors offers industry customer service training and accelerated learning opportunities through programs like our Explore NH Initiatives and NH Travel Counselors Certification.
