In the Business of Caring with Cove Cares

Everyone knows that catchy song You’ve Got a Friend in Me by Randy Newman, right? That is what comes to mind when thinking of Cove Cares. It’s the heartbeat of our organization, bringing residents, Cove team members, and charitable organizations together to do more. We invest our time, talents, and resources to make a positive impact in the surrounding areas in which we operate.

While Cove Cares is central part of our culture at all of our resorts and communities, our Florida and Maine locations are the most popular. They feature an array of partner organizations for donations, community involvement within the neighborhood, public service sororities, and more. Partnerships include Toys for Tots, Relay for Life, Salvation Army, local food banks, and so much more. One of Point Sebago Resort’s main partnerships is Camp Sunshine: a retreat for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families. Point Sebago donates thousands of dollars each year during their Camp Sunshine Auction in the fall enabling residents and guests to donate as well.  

Our Florida properties are best known for giving back by helping with landscaping and gardening, packaging meals, running local donation drives and events, and more. Incorporating the Cove Core Values of hospitality, excellence, passion, trustworthiness, stewardship, and kindness into everything our team does, it is guaranteed that every ounce of passion is put behind what we’re doing. The Cove Difference shows our drive and plan to be the helping hand within the community that welcomes everyone into the family and positive atmosphere our residents create.  

Not only are we showing love to our surrounding communities through donations, volunteering, and public service sororities, but our annual talent show, Cove’s Got Talent, is one that involves every community. Featuring the gifts and talents our guests showcase. With raising money for the Disabled Veterans of America charity, our partner sponsors join in with their donations as well. In past years, there have been funds raised on the upwards of $30,000 all donated to the DAV charity.
