Make an Investment in Downtown Saco

Small budget, big impact.

In 2025, we made great strides together. With the help of grants, we transformed Riverfront Park, Post Office Park, and even Main Street with our “Greetings from Saco” seasonal photo banner. We updated our website to include a business directory, helping residents and visitors discover and support our downtown businesses. We started a new summer tradition: Music on Main concerts right here on Main Street! We launched Below the Falls, a digitally-guided walking tour of the Saco Riverfront that dives into the history, industry, and ecology of the river. And despite construction challenges and detours, we were still able to host several joyful, well-attended community events.

Join the movement!

Your gift powers beautification, economic vitality, and community spirit right here in Downtown Saco.

We need your support now.

While we’re fortunate to have a passionate staff, Board of Directors, and dedicated volunteers, we can’t do this without you. Over the years, we’ve tried to keep our financial ask to the community to a minimum, but we now need help. Your support will allow events like the holiday parade to continue.

We’re asking community members to give at one of these impact levels — every contribution helps us reach our year end goal of $15,000:

  • 5 gifts of $1,000 5000
  • 5 gifts of $500 2500
  • 20 gifts of $100 2000
  • 50 gifts of $50 2500
  • 120 gifts of $25 3000

Can you contribute at one of these levels? Saco Main Street is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and your contribution is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
