We share the grief that so many are experiencing over lives lost in Lewiston, Maine. It's a diverse, strong, historic, and generous city where Genesis provides many community partners with project financing and guidance. We are thankful to the Maine Community Foundation for creating this opportunity to support healing in the Lewiston-Auburn community.

The Maine Community Foundation is grieving with our friends, colleagues and neighbors in Lewiston.

In response to this horrific tragedy, MaineCF has created the Lewiston-Auburn Area Response Fund to address current and emerging needs. Our administrative fees have been waived and 100% of every dollar donated will be allocated to people impacted and the organizations that will help guide Lewiston-Auburn through the process of healing.

Donations may be made to victims and survivors or to the broader recovery effort. Click here to donate or to learn more about the fund: www.mainecf.org/lewiston.
