Community projects help to move ideas into action.

Our Katahdin launched in December 2014, and has since raised more than $208,000 to support local leaders who have identified “small win” community development projects. The projects we have delivered include:

  • Revitalization of the Millinocket bandstand during the 2014 Christmas season
  • Design and posting of banners in the Millinocket downtown business district
  • Purchased warming blankets for the oncology department at Millinocket Regional Hospital.
  • Support for the 2015 Millinocket Fireworks at the 4th of July and Summerfest in East Millinocket
  • Revitalization of Hillcrest playground into a public park that is designed for all citizens to enjoy
  • Purchased professional-grade outdoor movie theater and required licensing for public showings
  • Sponsored the Maine Outdoor Film Festival to come to the Katahdin region for the first time

In each case, Our Katahdin used its platform to allow local leaders to create plans, raise funds and mobilize volunteers to get the job done. With this approach, we are not dictating the agenda for the Katahdin region, but we are providing all the support needed to enable local leaders to be successful.

100% of project donations go directly to those specific projects, with the exception of small PayPal fees that protect your financial transaction.
