Our Community Investment Committee usually meets monthly to review requests. Every effort will be made to review requests in a timely manner. We give top
priority to requests from organizations located in our service areas which do not have state or national affiliations. The volume of requests we receive
represent a great number of worthy causes and organizations, however our resources are limited and we cannot honor every request. Please note that Kennebunk
Savings Bank and the Kennebunk Savings Bank Foundation do not provide funding for individuals, religious or political organizations.
Please Note:
The Huntington Common Charitable Fund for Seniors of the Kennebunk
Savings Bank Foundation (Huntington Common Charitable Fund) is now
accepting grant applications. The Huntington
Common Charitable Fund was established with the proceeds from
the conversion and sale of Huntington Common Retirement Living
Community in 2006. Each year the Kennebunk Savings Bank Foundation
will allocate earnings of the Huntington Common Fund to benefit
qualified organizations serving York County residents ages 65 and
older. The Foundation will be guided by the recommendations of the
Huntington Common Charitable Fund Board of Advisors.
If you still have questions about the program or if you are unable to complete this request on-line, please contact the Community Relations Manager at
