With our grant, Harbor Homes MV was able to fund emergency electrical and plumbing repairs for congregate housing.
Our grant to Neighborhood Falmouth funded programs to help Falmouth seniors live independently, safely, and comfortably at home for as long as practical with support, information, and services.

For more than 17 years, I have been proud to be part of Martha’s Vineyard Bank and its deep commitment to our community. The Bank actively encourages employees to give back by offering a program that allows each of us to designate a nonprofit of our choice to receive a Bank-funded donation. In addition, the Bank provides a matching donation program to further amplify our support. I am honored to work for an organization so genuinely invested in strengthening the communities where we live and work.
