Since 1992, the Genesis Fund has provided low-cost financing and expert assistance to more than 135 Maine nonprofit organizations. Groups working to improve affordable housing and local community facilites have often heard about us by word-of-mouth. While that has kept Genesis Fund staff busy over the past 15 years, it is time to share the stories about projects we've worked on in a more deliberate way. Beginning in May, Genesis Fund Communications Director Heidi Shott (pictured above receiving her first Rotary coffee mug from Damariscotta/Newcastle Rotary Vice President Phil Congdon and Camden National Bank's Gary Stone) started giving talks to groups across the state about the Genesis Fund's work in affordable and supportive housing, community development, sustaining island communities, as well as its newest work with residents of mobile home parks. Heidi would be pleased to talk with business groups, civic club leaders, churches, and nonprofit organizations about making a presentation tailored to your interests and region. Please contact her at 207.563.6073 or heidi@genesisfund.org to set up a visit. Do you have questions about The Genesis Fund? What are the borrowing criteria? How can I invest in The Genesis Fund?
