MountainOne announced that it has donated $10,000 to the Berkshire Community Action Council (BCAC) as part of its 2024 Community Dividend Program.
The BCAC is a non-profit human service organization that assists low-income residents of Berkshire County towards achieving sustainability and self-sufficiency. Working with the community to find creative and maintainable solutions that promote economic stability and alleviate the destabilizing effects of poverty for those in Berkshire County, the BCAC has had “self-sufficiency and dignity for all” as its vision since incorporating in 1966.
MountainOne’s donation is earmarked specifically for the BCAC’s Warm Winter Clothing Program which provides children aged 12 and under with new coats, boots, hats, mittens, and gloves. While the cold weather season is still months away, MountainOne is excited to provide these funds now as the preparations for the Warm Clothing Program span all four seasons. Families are provided with the opportunity to shop for items at “The Children’s Winter Boutique at BCAC,” allowing them the opportunity to chose items that best suit their child(ren)’s taste, style, and comfort.
The Community Dividend Program at MountainOne supports non-profits throughout the Berkshires and South Shore, particularly organizations that positively impact those most-in-need community members.
“It is our privilege to fund this critical program that supports children and their families during some of the most challenging months of the year. MountainOne places the safety and well-being of children as a top priority of our Community Dividend Program,” said Robert Fraser, President & Chief Executive Officer of MountainOne.
In addition to corporate sponsorship, BCAC offers the ability to for community members and groups to sponsor a child during the winter. For further details on The Warm Winter Clothing Program, visit bcacinc.org/winter-clothing-program.
