S P O N S O R E D C O N T E N T Together We Can Make a Difference. As a Certified B Corp, Mascoma Bank uses our business as a force for good, putting people and the planet first. See what some of our Maine business partners are saying about how we go above and beyond. 207-553-3984 48 Free Street, Suite 200, Portland mascomabank.com " It's been terrific to work with partners like Coastal Enterprises, Inc (CEI) and fellow Certified B Corp Mascoma Bank to make renewable energy projects like the Aligned Climate Capital's Souther Farm project a reality. This project helped to keep a family farm in ongoing operation, lowered energy costs for a number of Maine school districts and is part of our state's efforts to reduce global carbon emissions and address the world's current climate crises." Fortunat Mueller, P.E. President, ReVision Energy " It has been advantageous working with my friends at Mascoma Bank. There are very few community banks with the product breadth and financial sophistication that Mascoma Bank and Mascoma Community Development provide its customers. Through the Mascoma family, Fathom Companies have had access to New Markets Tax Credits, Historic Tax Credits, as well as construction and permanent mortgage financing. The financial tools that Mascoma provides real estate developers like myself, help make projects feasible, which otherwise may not be possible… projects that create positive, tangible economic impacts in a community." Jim Brady President and Director, Fathom Companies " Working on behalf of my clients in a challenging real estate market, I need a lender who is responsive, focused on creative solutions, and wanting to go above and beyond in customer service. I have found these qualities when working with Kaleigh Deering at Mascoma Bank. Mascoma works tirelessly — from making my first-time homebuyer comfortable with the home buying process — to my high net worth clients who are focused on seamless transactions without a ton of hassle. I have been working with Mascoma Bank for the past two years as I followed one of my most valued lenders to the bank in 2021. The move was transformative for both my clients, myself, and my successful work in a very fast paced market."
