Congratulations to our own Board Chair Bryan Bouchard, Chief Communications & Marketing Officer Michele Talwani, and current board member Tim Wade of M&T Bank for making this year’s list!
We are excited to share that Easterseals NH & VT’s own Board Chair Bryan Bouchard, Chief Communications & Marketing Officer Michele Talwani, and current board member Tim Wade of M&T Bank have all been named 2025 honorees of NH Business Review’s New Hampshire 200!
This esteemed annual list celebrates the achievements of business and nonprofit leaders across the Granite State. Bryan, Michele, and Tim will be recognized with other winners at a formal reception next spring. A comprehensive New Hampshire 200 book highlighting the achievements of each honoree is also expected to be released.
Bryan has served on our board since 2015, becoming Chairman in 2023. For more than two decades, he has been a full-time faculty member in the Accountancy and Taxation Department at Southern New Hampshire University’s School of Business, serving as co-chair from 2015 to 2018.
Michele, who joined our organization in January 2023 to take on a new role created to plan and coordinate a communication and major gift fundraising effort around our centers of excellence, was promoted to our first Chief Communications and Marketing Officer last February. She has more than 25 years of management, public relations, communications, and marketing experience for several nonprofits in New Hampshire.
Tim joined our board in early 2023 and has since become one of the most ardent supporters of our Very Important Partners (VIPartners) Campaign, a concerted annual effort across many of our partners to raise funds for our programs. He has more than three decades of commercial banking experience combined with another seven years of direct experience in the healthcare consulting and skilled nursing administration fields. Over the past 40 years, he has served on many boards and committees for area nonprofits, including the Boys and Girls Club of Boston, Massachusetts Business Roundtable, MVP Healthcare, the American Red Cross, the Schenectady Day Nursery, and the Union College Foundation.
It is incredibly humbling to have THREE members of the Easterseals NH & VT family make this year’s list, not to mention many more of our partners. It is a true testament to our leadership team and board’s tireless work of elevating people of all abilities and making meaningful differences in the lives of those we serve.
Congratulations to Bryan, Michele, Tim, and all of our other supporters who made this year’s list!
