“We have no shortage of exceptional nonprofit organizations that work tirelessly to empower and strengthen our communities,” said Renée Smyth, executive vice president and chief experience & marketing officer at Camden National Bank, in a news release from the bank. “Behind each nonprofit is a committee of caring, altruistic, and passionate board members that deserve recognition for their leadership efforts and expertise.”

Awardees will be chosen by a special selection committee that includes three independent community members and two Camden National Bank executives.
