LEWISTON — A total of $10,600 was awarded to three nonprofit organizations in the second quarter of awards from Androscoggin Bank’s Main Street Foundation. Receiving awards were Freeport Community Services, $3,000 for its backpack meals program; Learningworks of Portland, $5,000 for summer camp; and the Susan L. Curtis Charitable Foundation, of Portland, $2,600 for CollegeJam initiative which provides tools, workshops, and information for students with access barriers to higher education.
The MainStreet Foundation is Androscoggin Bank’s $1,000,000 foundation, which has a mission to help keep at-risk kids in Maine safe, healthy, active, happy, educated and nourished. Four times a year, MainStreet Foundation makes grants up to $5,000 to non-profit agencies actively working in communities to help kids thrive. In 2011, Androscoggin Bank pledged to donate $100,000 to the MainStreet Foundation in honor of outgoing Bank President Steven A. Closson. With that gift, MainStreet is also able to offer four $25,000 individual grants, one each year, beginning in November 2013. For more information, visit www.mainstreet-foundation.org.
