We are so excited to launch our 2022 SHARING OUR SUCCESS PROGRAM! We have chosen 10 nonprofits as this year’s recipients. Our client’s “closing gifts” will be a donation made in their name to one of these community organizations on behalf of their broker and Swan Agency. All of these groups are an important part of what makes living here so special. We believe in the value of giving back and we want to do so in ways that are fun and unique. We are thankful for the trust and loyalty of our clients and grateful to live in this wonderful community.
Our 2022 benefactors are: Acadia Wildlife Foundation, Frenchman Bay Conservancy, Friends of Acadia, Hospice of Hancock County, Island Connections, Island Housing Trust, Maine Seacoast Mission, MDI History Trust, MDI Hospital, and MDI Pet Food Pantry.

We also announced the launch of SHARING OUR SUCCESS in our backpage ad in last week's Ellsworth American and MDIslander.

We have added an important platform to our company Mission Statement for 2022!
