Ending Hunger 2020 Efforts Come to a Close


As we begin a new year of fundraising activities to support Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger, it is important to submit any outstanding 2020 Ending Hunger funds to the League by January 8. Having your annual funding calculations in by this deadline ensures we can accurately report our 2020 fundraising totals at our celebration event on February 9.

We are hoping that we will once again have participation from every credit union in Maine!

Food Drives

If your credit union sponsored any food drives over the past year, please include the following information to have this activity added to your 2020 fundraising total:

  • A very brief description of the food drive.
  • The total dollar value of the goods collected.
  • Name of the recipient(s).
  • Acknowledgement from the recipient(s) that they received your donation.

Questions

Please email Jen Burke, League Public Affairs & Communications Manager, at jburke@mainecul.org if you have questions about submitting your 2020 Ending Hunger funds.
