Kennebunk Savings reaches $1 million in donations to local nonprofits

Kennebunk Savings ended 2019 with a record $1 million in donations to area nonprofits. The bank hit this milestone back in December with a $25,000 donation to Kennebunk Elementary and helped the school move closer to breaking ground on an ambitious, inclusive playground project. “It’s our biggest donation to date,” said Anush Hansen, Kennebunk Elementary PTA member and committee volunteer, in an email. “Planning started over a year ago, and when fundraising began, Kennebunk Savings was top of mind. We knew they were committed to contributing to the community. The donation has really helped build more momentum, so we hope to get the playground built by this summer.”
