CMP continues to play a meaningful role in strengthening Kennebec County by investing in the education and well-being of its customers, employees, and broader community. As one of the region’s largest utility providers, CMP has long recognized that safe, informed, and resilient communities benefit everyone. Its ongoing efforts and future plans demonstrate a clear commitment to supporting lifelong learning, youth development, and community knowledge that aligns closely with the goals of Impact2032.
CMP’s charitable giving already prioritizes education, community needs, and veteran support, and employees are encouraged to volunteer with organizations that reflect these pillars. Education is woven into many of the company’s outreach efforts. Programs like Safety City offer students an interactive way to learn how to stay safe around electricity, power lines, and other structures. CMP also donates books from Maine authors and illustrators to schools and early learning programs statewide, reinforcing literacy and early education. The company regularly supports local classrooms, high schools, career and technical centers, and JMG programs by participating in career days, job fairs, and classroom presentations. Training up Maine’s future workforce is also critical at CMP. Employees collaborate with Junior Achievement to teach business, leadership, and marketing and serve on career panels that help students imagine their future pathways.
As CMP continues implementing its Impact2032 Plan, its community relations team will focus on convening partners and offering support through volunteer time, funding, and shared resources. With 126 years of experience serving Mainers, the company is uniquely positioned to elevate community education and help guide Kennebec County toward a more informed and resilient future.
