Community Involvement

Community is always a priority

The Knowles Company believes that the keys to success include the relationships its brokers and agents build, and one way to build those long-standing relationships is through public service. For a grassroots business started by a local librarian over 100 years ago, the community is always a priority, and our brokers and agents continue in the tradition of contributing time and financial support to the public.

We give back to the community in a variety of ways:

  • The Knowles Company offers business services including notarizing, photocopying, faxing, and FedEx/UPS package receiving in exchange for donations, which go to charitable organizations. Since this program was initiated in 1996, more than $10,000 has been distributed to local charities.
  • The Knowles Company also donates outright to many local charities and non-profit organizations throughout the year. Some examples are:

As individuals, our brokers, agents and staff actively demonstrate a commitment to community involvement. At any given time, our staff is hands-on with a variety of community organizations all across Mount Desert Island and the surrounding area.
