Fort Kent –Northern Maine Medical Center (NMMC) recently received a cash contribution in the amount of $1,330 from TD Bank, through the bank’s Affinity Membership Program. Bertrand Boucher, Fort Kent TD Bank Vice President, made the announcement on June 15, 2015.
TD Bank’s Affinity Membership Program helps non-profit organizations such as NMMC raise money by receiving an annual cash contribution from TD Bank based upon the average deposit balance held by the non-profit’s participating members, in this case, NMMC employees. The Affinity Program will make an annual cash contribution to the organization based on member participation.
For example, by opening a checking account, TD Bank will donate $50 to the the selected charitable cause. TD Bank will also contribute $10 annually for existing qualified checking accounts. The TD Bank Affinity Program also offers fundraising potential with personal savings accounts or CD’s.
The funds raised through TD Bank’s Affinity Membership Program benefit the Edgar J. (Guy) Paradis Cancer Fund. The Fund, a service of NMMC, is a nonprofit venture that provides support services to families from the St. John Valley who have a diagnosis of cancer. The fund provides financial assistance for travel and lodging of family members so they may accompany the cancer patient when treatment away from the St. John Valley is necessary.
