Capital Area FCU Warms the Hearts and Hands of Area Children

The team at Capital Area FCU is helping to keep its youngest community members warm this winter.

Maine winters can be tough, and they are even harder when families don’t have the proper gear to stay warm. Recently, Capital Area FCU stepped up to help its community ensure that some of its youngest members were protected from the elements.

The credit union donated more than 192 winter clothing items—including hats, mittens, and neck warmers—to Lincoln School, which was in urgent need of cold-weather gear for students. In addition, Capital Area FCU donated over $800 to Gilbert School, which had identified several children in need. This contribution provided gift cards, allowing the school to shop directly for families who needed extra support.

Capital Area FCU’s generosity is helping local students face the winter months with warmth and confidence, proving that small acts of kindness can make a big impact.
