Charitable Foundation
The Middlesex Savings Charitable Foundation is celebrating 10 years of support for our communities! Since June 23, 2000 the Foundation has provided almost $1.8 million in grants to 119 non-profit organizations providing critical community services throughout Eastern and Central Massachusetts.
Established as a nonprofit, private charitable foundation to further carry out the philanthropic mission of Middlesex Savings Bank, the Foundation aims to fund eligible organizations in the Bank's CRA market area in any economic environment. Middlesex Savings Bank initially provided $2 million on an endowment basis, and continues to add to the endowment annually. As of June 2010, the endowment now totals $5.4 million. The Foundation currently provides annual scholarship support to college bound seniors in addition to its principle grant-making philanthropic programs:
