This summer, credit unions across the state facilitated many fundraisers for causes near and dear to our hearts—including our shared Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger. PeopleChoice CU found great success with their “Win Big, Do Good” Summer Sweepstakes, raising a grand total of $6,555 for the Campaign thanks to the generosity of their members’ contributions!
The fundraiser ran from early June through the end of August with a goal of raising critical funds for local food pantries and meal programs. A total of $9,055 was generated in entry sales by members, and one lucky member won $2,500—with the rest benefiting hunger relief efforts in Maine.
Fundraisers for the Campaign make a big impact on the lives of hungry Mainers in need, and every dollar counts. The funds raised by PeoplesChoice CU—and by other credit union fundraisers throughout the year all over Maine—are surely going to make a difference for those struggling to obtain enough nutrition. Great work to the team at PeoplesChoice CU for their success!
