At Acadia Benefits, our work is centered around helping people—both in and out of the office. As a locally owned business, we’re committed to supporting the people and organizations that make our community stronger. In 2024, we continued this commitment by providing each employee with $200 to donate to a charity of their choice.
This initiative was not just about financial support, it was about empowering our team to contribute to causes they care deeply about. The result? Donations were made to a diverse range of organizations doing incredible work locally, nationally, and globally. Our team directed funds in 2024 to the following organizations:
-
2024 Salvation Army Adopt-A-Family donations… an annual office tradition! Ronald McDonald House – Providing families with a home away from home while their children receive medical care.
-
The Robbie Foundation – Supporting children with disabilities in Maine.
-
St. Jude’s Research Hospital – Advancing research and treatment for pediatric cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
-

This charitable giving initiative is just one of the many ways we strive to foster a culture of generosity and community involvement. We know that small actions can make a big difference and are grateful for the opportunity to give back. Thank you to our team for making a difference—and to the organizations we supported for the incredible work they do every day. We look forward to continuing this tradition in the years to come!
