NATICK – The Middlesex Savings Charitable Foundation, the nonprofit, private charitable foundation established by Middlesex Savings Bank, the largest mutual bank in Massachusetts, announced a donation of $345,300 to 19 local nonprofits.

Last year, Middlesex assisted nonprofits with a specialized COVID-19 relief fund, on top of its annual grant awards. Now, Middlesex continues to provide meaningful support through its traditional grantmaking program by focusing on three core areas – educational opportunities, basic human needs, and nonprofit capacity building. Since its inception in 2000, the Foundation has provided more than $13 million in grants to nonprofits providing critical community services.
