A Certified B Corporation®

Becoming a B Corp™ is a natural extension of what we have always been, a mutual bank chartered to serve the needs of the communities we serve. Now as a Certified B Corporation®, we strive to be a force for positive change, demonstrating that people and place matter, and to be responsible for each other as well as future generations.

At the core, this means that we use “business as a force for good.” Practically speaking, being a B Corp™ inspires us to consider the impact of our business decisions on our communities, our customers, our employees, and our environment. It is helping us to discover new ways we can deliver positive change in the cities and towns where we work and live. For 120 years, Mascoma Bank has put community first. Our status as a B Corp™ is just the latest example of our commitment to the communities we serve.

• We strive to be a force for positive change, creating benefit for all our stakeholders—not just shareholders.
• We conduct business knowing that people and place matter, aspiring both to do no harm and to benefit all.
• We recognize our INTERdependence, because we are dependent on and responsible for each other as well as future generations.
• We strive to be different from other banks, and we will continue to change and grow to better serve the world around us.
• We constantly strive to do things better and to make the change we seek happen.

Community Impact

“They can’t afford to pay us back” doesn’t sound like the typical beginning to a story about a bank loaning hundreds of thousands of dollars, does it? But sometimes, you know something is going to be so valuable to the community, you have to find a way to make it happen.

In working to find ways to finance a new home for developmentally disabled adults to live independent lives just steps from the center of Lebanon with work sites, shops, restaurants, arts venues, a farmer’s market, and public transportation, Mascoma Bank needed to make a commitment and take a leap of faith on a project that was simply “the right thing to do.”

Visions for Creative Housing Solutions helps adults with developmental and similar disabilities move from the care of their parents to a stable, reliable, and caring environment.
