SANFORD, Maine—Partners Bank is proud to announce its designation as a Platinum Sponsor of Seacoast Science Center—a Rye-based nonprofit marine science education organization—with a donation of $10,000.

Located in New Hampshire’s Odiorne Point State Park, Seacoast Science Center is committed to inspiring conservation and bringing restorative, positive change to our environment through interactive learning with science-based programs, events, exhibitions and environmental camps. The Center’s teaching orientation is primarily focused on children, their educators and their parents.

The Bank’s gift will help Seacoast Science Center in its ongoing efforts to improve the long-term health of our planet. As a Platinum Sponsor, the Bank’s donation will contribute to the support of the Atlantic Grill Music by the Sea concert series, the Nemo’s World tank exhibit and free entry for military families.

“With our new Rye office, we’ve just recently joined this remarkable community,” says Partners Bank President & CEO Blaine Boudreau. “In opening here, we’ll do all we can to support Rye’s vitality, enrichment and growth—and there’s perhaps no better way of doing that than teaming up with Seacoast Science Center in its vital mission to conserve our fragile natural resources.”
