Our commitment to the communities we serve
Partners Bank dedicates 10% of annual earnings to support local nonprofits, schools, and community-based organizations across Maine and New Hampshire. Our team shows up beyond the branch by volunteering at Habitat for Humanity builds, running in the Special Olympics Torch Relay, sponsoring local parades, jumping into freezing water for a good cause, and much more.
