Dunstable, Massachusetts
Community Organizations
Dunstable and the Nashua River valley are served by a network of non-profits working on land conservation, local history, and support for families and schools. These are some of the organizations residents turn to, and every one of them takes volunteers.
Non-Profit Organizations
| Organization | What they do |
|---|---|
| Nashua River Watershed Association | Protects the rivers, streams, greenways and forests of the Nashua River watershed, which reaches through Dunstable, with water-quality monitoring, land conservation, climate work and community education. |
| Dunstable Rural Land Trust | Dunstable’s own volunteer land trust, working to conserve open space, farmland and woodland in a town that has kept a largely rural character. |
| Groton-Dunstable Education Foundation | A community foundation that raises money for grants and programs across the Groton-Dunstable regional schools the two towns share. |
| Tyngsborough-Dunstable Historical Society | Keeps and shares the local history of Dunstable and neighboring Tyngsborough, once a single town. |
