IN DONATIONS RAISED IN 2024

In 2024 your staff, Board of Directors, Supervisory Committee and Nominating Committee gave freely of their time, talents, and energy throughout the year by contributing to several great causes. We volunteered nearly 1,400 hours of our personal time for several different organizations including CULAC, Kiwanis Club, KV Chamber, Kennebec Valley Chapter of Credit Unions Financial Fitness Fairs, Old Fort Western, Randolph Firefighter Association, Youth Athletes, Small Wood Lot Associates, Windsor Historical Society, and Soil & Water Conservation. The credit union also sponsored events such as the WABK Love Fund, partnered with Snow Pond and the Boys and Girls Club Teen Center, Bread of Life, Travis Mills Plane Pull, Augusta Schools Book Drive, Lions Club Charity Calendar, among other worthy causes and memorial donations for members we lost, all of which resulted in over $6,800 in donations.
