WGAN’s MainePoints highlighted Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger this month. The interview highlights this year’s new fundraising initiative, Holiday Meals for Mainers.

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.

“One in five Mainers are food insecure, a rate higher than other states in New England,” said Maine Credit Union League President/CEO Todd Mason at this year’s launch. “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.”
