Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger launches Holiday Meals for Mainers

November 8, 2021
MaineHunger

Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger announced a new fundraising initiative just in time for the holidays. Throughout the months of November and December, the Campaign is encouraging people to donate $5 (or more) to help feed a hungry Mainer as part of its Holiday Meals for Mainers initiative.

“Maine credit unions understand that the holidays can be an especially stressful time,” said Todd Mason, president/CEO of the Maine Credit Union League. “But for those individuals and families that struggle to put meals on their tables, this season can make their financial situations even worse. We came up with his idea to help ease that burden, but we need the public’s help.”

Online donations can be made at www.campaignforendinghunger.org.

“One in five Mainers are food insecure, a rate higher than other states in New England,” added Mason. “Given that every community is impacted by hunger on some level, I can’t think of a better present to give than the gift of food this holiday season. A $5 donation can go a long way to help feed someone in need in your community.”

All donations to the Campaign for Ending Hunger are tax deductible and support hunger-relief organizations in Maine.
