When considering changing careers from the non-profit world in 2018, it was important to me to find a company that valued being a good community member and neighbor as a top priority. Portside has been the perfect fit; whether it is through a volunteer opportunity for a Portside Gives Back Event, a monetary donation, or the unwavering support from the staff to help bring your own idea for helping the community to fruition, the opportunities for community engagement are endless.
I am so proud to be a Founding Board Member of 1% for Maine. 1% for Maine focuses on the next generation, Maine’s youth. Supporting and addressing systemic Maine problems including generational poverty, substance abuse, and limited access to medical care, education, and food. I have committed, along with Portside Real Estate Group, to giving 1% of gross revenue to Maine's future.
I am also honored to have the opportunity to support Maine Needs, an amazing local non-profit that I wish had been available when I was a social worker. Maine Needs aims to meet people on the hill they climb and ease stressors by rallying the heart of the community to provide basic needs. The work they do is truly amazing and we are so lucky to have their support within our community. To learn more about Maine Needs and find ways to contribute visit: https://www.maineneeds.org
