The Clinton Savings Charitable Foundation was established in January 2001 to mark Clinton Savings Bank's 150 anniversary year. Its mission is to provide financial support to non-profit organizations' projects that will benefit the Greater Clinton area. Eligible organizations must be located in or serve one of the following towns: Berlin, Bolton, Boylston, Clinton, Harvard, Lancaster, Sterling or West Boylston.

In the recent past, the Charitable Foundation has made financial contributions to many worthy organizations, including the Bolton Hoops Project, WHEAT's community van initiative, Atlantic Union College's music program, Becker College, Clinton Bigelow Library, the Town of Lancaster, West Boylston Historical Society and the Conant Library in Sterling, to name a few.

In addition to what the Charitable Foundation accomplishes, Clinton Savings Bank and its employees also initiate and participate in area events to support good causes, such as the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation, Make-A-Wish Foundation of Massachusetts, Community Café, the "Help a Child Blossom" golf fundraising event for the Perkins School and the United Way.

The Bank and Foundation consider servicing community outreach programs our responsibility and look forward to continuing to make a difference for many years to come.
