Community

At United Insurance, the people we insure are more than clients. They are our neighbors and our friends. They coach our children’s little league teams, volunteer in our schools, and run the businesses that are the backbone of the communities where our 18 offices are located. We encourage our employees to be leaders and get involved with local community service organizations.

Boys & Girls Clubs of Southern Maine is one of the four core organizations we partner with in order to focus our philanthropic efforts on youth development, ensuring the brightest possible future for the communities we serve. For the second consecutive year, we participated in Maine’s oldest road race, the Patriots Day 5k, helping raise over $30,000!

 

 

Junior Achievement of Maine was founded in 1965, in Portland High School and provides young people with the knowledge and skills they need to own their success, plan for their futures, and make smart academic and economic life choices. Many of our employees volunteer in classrooms supporting JA’s programs to inspire and prepare today’s youth to succeed in their futures.

Founded in 1992, the Maine chapter of Make-A-Wish, serves children in all 16 Maine counties and on average grants one wish every five days. We’re proud to support their “Share a Power of a Wish” campaign in making wishes come true for children battling critical illnesses.

 

Getting plenty of fresh air and exercise is essential for growing bodies, which is why we’re proud to support WinterKids. For the third consecutive year, we participated in the WinterKids Downhill24, a 24-hour ski and snowboard challenge. Learn more about this wonderful event and how we exceeded our $30,000 fundraising goal in 2025!
