Maine CU Reach Fundraising Milestone in Fight to End Hunger

I love sharing happy news…and this is happy news. One of the big issues we have always tried to help and draw attention to is food insecurity issues in Maine. Townsquare Media Central Maine has a long history of helping out by not only promoting these sorts of events but for years we had the Tanksgiving Food Drive that has recently become Camp Out Hunger. So it makes me very happy to tell you that in 2020, a year of such need and uncertainty, Maine Credit Unions reach a fundraising milestone by hitting a total of $10.4 million raised since 1990 and a record-breaking $966,775 in 2020 with all of its fundraising challenges due to the pandemic. Makes me very proud to be a member of the Maine Credit Union family.

The Maine Credit Union’s Campaign to End Hunger provides support to 260 food-based organizations and every Maine Credit Union takes part in some form. I am very proud of my two credit unions; Maine State Credit Union and Gardiner Federal Credit Union of
