Maine CUs have an appetite for helping to end hunger


Old reliable events and new, first-time endeavors combined to help Maine CUs raise funds for the Maine CUs' Campaign for Ending Hunger.  As the 2017 Campaign enters its final quarter, the pace of fundraising will, no doubt, continue to get even busier.  Since 1990, the Maine Credit Unions' Campaign for Ending Hunger has raised $7.2 million to help end hunger in Maine including a record-setting $675,000 in 2016.  Here are some of the events that raised funds for the Campaign in the past couple of months.
