Ways to Give
“Philanthropy is something we can all be engaged in, regardless of financial means. Sometimes a simple conversation brings the hope and energy needed to fuel our work. We invite you to support Healthy Acadia your way, and send our sincere thanks for your partnership in building community health. ”
Every day, Healthy Acadia works hand-in-hand with community members, organizations, and partners to meet important health needs and respond to emerging challenges across Downeast Maine.
Through a wide range of free programs and services, we support individuals and families across Hancock and Washington counties with tools and resources to stay healthy, safe, and connected. From nutrition and recovery support to youth engagement and disease prevention, everything we do is rooted in care, collaboration, and the belief that everyone deserves access to their best health.
As a nonprofit, much of our work is made possible through federal, state, and private grant funding. But community support is just as essential.
Your generosity helps fill critical gaps.
When grant funding runs out or new health needs arise, your support helps keep programs going strong. It allows us to respond quickly, adapt to local needs, and continue serving our communities with care and commitment. It’s the generosity of people like you that allows us to keep going—and keep growing.
Every contribution—large or small—helps make a lasting difference in the lives of people throughout Hancock and Washington counties. Your support sustains programs that promote wellness, foster resilience, and bring people together.
