Kennebec Savings Bank has been named the official bank of Portland Hearts of Pine, Maine’s first professional men’s soccer team.

“Launching a professional soccer club takes more than just passion — it takes strong partnerships and expert support,” Gabe Hoffman-Johnson, founder and chief community officer of Hearts, said in a news release. “Kennebec Savings Bank understands what it takes to build something meaningful, and we’re thrilled to have them as a key part of our journey.”

As Hearts prepares to take the field at Fitzpatrick Stadium in Portland in May, Kennebec Savings Bank will serve as a financial partner, helping the club navigate the business side of professional sports while continuing to serve the needs of customers and businesses across Maine.
