MountainOne Climbs Rankings Among Massachusetts’ Most Charitable Companies

Boston Business Journal recognizes MountainOne for third consecutive year, with ranking rising 11 spots since 2024

MountainOne has been named one of Massachusetts' Most Charitable Companies by the Boston Business Journal for the third consecutive year, recognizing its continued commitment to supporting nonprofit organizations and communities across the Commonwealth.

MountainOne ranked No. 61 on the 2026 list, up from No. 64 in 2025 and No. 72 in 2024. The recognition follows $653,154 in charitable contributions made by MountainOne in 2025, supporting a wide range of community needs, including education, healthcare, housing, human services, and economic development.

The Boston Business Journal annually recognizes companies that contribute at least $100,000 to Massachusetts-based charities. This year's list includes 95 companies representing a variety of industries, which collectively contributed more than $417 million in 2025.

"Community engagement has always been a core part of who we are at MountainOne," said Brenda Petell, Vice President, Community Engagement Officer at MountainOne. "Every day, nonprofit organizations across Massachusetts are doing incredible work to meet the needs of our communities, and we're proud to support their efforts through charitable giving, volunteerism, and hands-on involvement. We're honored to receive this recognition for the third consecutive year and look forward to continuing this important work."

Beyond its charitable contributions, MountainOne encourages employees, known as Mountaineers, to take an active role in their communities. In 2025, Mountaineers contributed 1,824 volunteer hours supporting local organizations and initiatives. Employees also give back through MountainOne Cares, an employee-led giving program.

MountainOne was recognized alongside fellow honorees at the Boston Business Journal's Corporate Citizenship Awards, held September 16 at Big Night Live in Boston.
