Agassiz Village

We love our Board Members and know they will all go to all lengths to support our Village but Ben Kern this may be above and beyond. https://lnkd.in/e-V2Jnx6

Getting ready to serve 500 youth from under-resourced communities is a monumental undertaking. We can’t do it alone and this year we are so grateful for the outpouring of support from our corporate partners. Collectively these companies contributed over 90 volunteer hours and donated thousands of dollars of in-kind contributions. Camp starts on Sunday! We are ready, thanks to Deloitte, PwC, Thompson Lake Environmental Association, Walmart of Auburn, New Balance, L.L.Bean, CVS Pharmacy of Wayland, Machias Savings Bank, AAA of Northern New England, and REBUILDING TOGETHER LEWISTON-AUBURN. Thank you all for your amazing support. Does your company want to get involved?  Email msmith@agassizvillage.org for opportunities in Maine and MA. 

We are incredibly honored to be a part of Boston After School & Beyond. The support and connections we have made through this organization have been invaluable and have given us better tools to impact more kids. Thank you for your partnership!

It was such an honor to be recognized by our peers as having one of the top nonprofit leaders, Lisa Carter. Special thanks to the Massachusetts Nonprofit Network (MNN) for the nomination and congratulations to the winner Marisol Amaya-Aluigi and all of the other finalists for your dedication to serving others.

We are so thrilled—and proud—to announce that Lisa Carter, our executive director, has been named a 2024 Nonprofit Excellence in Leadership Award finalist! We at Agassiz Village recognize the impact that Lisa has had on Agassiz Village is immeasurable—and we are so happy that the nonprofit world now knows of her extraordinary talent. She is gifted at galvanizing people to the Agassiz cause, especially bringing in outside entities, helping them understand the mission and need, and finding a way for them to participate in a meaningful way. The ultimate benefactors of all Lisa’s passion and perseverance are, of course, our kids. The 2024 Nonprofit Excellence Awards will take place at the New England Aquarium on June 12, 2024. We’ll keep the Agassiz community apprised of the results. Congratulations, Lisa!
