Community

At Camden National Bank, our commitment to vitalizing our communities is deeply rooted in our culture and history. In addition to promoting economic vitality through our business activities, each month Stakeholders of the Bank support a variety of business, community, social and non-profit organizations.

While volunteerism is not required of our Stakeholders, we encourage and support them in their volunteer efforts. We are especially proud to see so many engage with their communities in such a genuine and meaningful way.

Our Stakeholders at all levels have chosen a variety of commitments to pursue. From running for State office to helping children deal with life-threatening illnesses, we have always, as one Stakeholder puts it best, "chosen service over self-interest, choosing what is best for the whole, as opposed to what is best for the individual."

This type of leadership and commitment is best displayed through the Company's Community Spirit of Giving (CSOG), our Stakeholder-run community outreach team that sponsors many fundraising events throughout the year to raise money to help area families in need at the holiday time. In place for 13 years, the CSOG has helped more than 1,800 individuals.
