Giving back to our communities in Southern Maine |
At Town & Country, we believe we have a responsibility to help make our communities a better place for all our neighbors. One way we do this is by giving back and supporting the events and programs of local non-profit organizations and community groups through sponsorships and donations.
While there are many worthy causes and organizations doing good work, there are several areas we primarily focus on including:
-
Financial Wellbeing
-
Affordable Housing
-
Health and Wellness
-
Youth and Education Programs
-
Serve Underserved Populations
-
Community Enrichment
Sponsorship or Donation Guidelines
If your non-profit organization, community group, club or school has an event or fundraiser coming up that you are seeking financial support for or an in-kind donation, please feel free to reach out to us.
A couple of things to keep in mind. Donation requests should:
-
Support the spirit of the cooperative principal of “People Helping People”;
-
Help the people and communities of Southern Maine;
-
Assist the work or an organization rather than directly benefit an individual;
-
Not support a third-party organization;
-
Not be given to political candidates or campaigns;
-
Not be considered for taxpayer supported agencies;
-
Not be considered for scholarship funds;
-
Not be considered for professional seminars or employee recognition programs.
Please allow four weeks from the time your request is submitted for a reply. Decisions to approve a sponsorship or donation request are based on available resources and the credit union’s priorities and criteria. Completed online applications are reviewed on a monthly basis. Organizations will be notified via email if the request is approved.
