NORWAY — As a result of an unprecedented, financially challenging year for nonprofits due to COVID19, Norway Savings Bank is making more than 30 donations to deserving organizations, totaling over $100,000 for year-end gifts. These nonprofits provide much-needed resources in Oxford, Androscoggin, Cumberland, York and Sagadahoc counties.

“As this year comes to a close, we know there are many nonprofits that desperately need additional financial support to carry out their critical work and to enrich our lives with entertainment through the winter ahead,” said Dan Walsh, President of Norway Savings Bank. “We decided to surprise these organizations with a donation to recognize all they continue to do during this pandemic.”
