Sargent Family Community Fund
Donations
Funding programs such as Just One Day (J1D) & Friends Helping Friends
Your donations help provide assistance and care to people in need across Rangeley and Oquossoc, including the 4 Plantations of Sandy River, Dallas, Rangeley, and Coplin.
Your Donations Matter
The Sargent Family Community Fund wouldn’t be what it is today without generous donations from people like you. Throughout the year your donations are used to pay people for their labor and materials required to complete the renovation projects we take on.
Depending on the scope of the projects in any particular year, the Sargent Family Community Fund usually participates in one to four renovation projects for people in need thanks to the generosity of people in our community, state and nationally. We could not do this without your amazing support and contributions.
We plan to continue supporting and assisting our neighbors in need for years to come and we’d love for you to join us on this mission. If you’d like to contribute to the future of the community fund, check out our donation options below!
Ways to Donate
We accept donations to the community fund throughout the year using these options.

Just One Day (J1D)
What is Just One Day?
One of our biggest events throughout the year is our Just One Day event. Each year, we select one or more homes in the towns of Rangeley and Oquossoc and the Plantations of Dallas, Sandy River, Rangeley, and Coplin, to have needed renovations done at no cost to the homeowner.
On the third Wednesday of July, artisans, businesses, and others across the area volunteer one day of their time to assist with the renovations being done to the selected properties. This volunteer event is known as Just One Day (J1D).
Each year approximately 75 people donate up to 8 hours of their time laboring over various aspects of the projects. This includes things like:
Beyond the One Day
While this event only lasts one day, the projects we’re involved in can last months or years. Throughout the rest of the year, people are paid for their labor and materials through this community fund and other business contributions.
In 2021 alone, the Sargent Family Community Fund took part in four renovation projects for people in need. We could not do this without the amazing support and contributions from people in our community.
