The Campaign raised a grand total of $78,372 to benefit local charities through the ATCCF Lend-A-Hand Grant Program. During the campaign $39,186 was donated by the community and business partners, surpassing the initial goal of $10,000 that had been established.

Speaking on behalf of the ATC Advisory Committee, volunteer Chairperson, Joan Taylor, noted: “The success of the Match Campaign speaks to the caring character of our community. We are very grateful to the individual donors and business partners, as well as The Adirondack Trust Company match, for their generous support that pushed total donations well beyond our initial goals. Their charitable work strengthens our community for all of us.”
