WEX in the Community: 4th of July Recap

WEX, founded in Portland, Maine in 1983, still traces its roots to this fertile ground for creativity and innovation; giving back in any way possible. As we strive to be a good neighbor and a valued partner to our community, we would like to highlight some of our work to keep Portland beautiful, creative, and engaged.

One of our favorite annual events is Portland’s Stars and Stripes Spectacular, hosted each year to celebrate this nation’s independence. As a Founding Sponsor, WEX is proud to partner with the City of Portland to help make this event bigger and better each year.
