The Heart of Maine Resource Center recently recognized Maine Highlands FCU for its outstanding commitment to volunteerism and hunger relief in the region. The nonprofit highlighted the credit union’s team for consistently showing up to support local food distribution efforts—bringing with them not only time and labor, but compassion, enthusiasm, and a deep commitment to their neighbors.
For more than a year, Maine Highlands FCU employees have volunteered regularly at the Center, assisting with everything from packing boxes to distributing food to families in need. To date, the credit union’s staff has contributed over 100 volunteer hours, helping strengthen the organization’s mission to end hunger across the region.
Breanna Goulette of Maine Highlands FCU underscored how service is woven into the credit union’s values.
“At Maine Highlands FCU, we believe caring for our community goes beyond financial support—it’s about lending a hand where it is needed most,” shared Goulette. “Ending hunger is a cause we are passionate about, and volunteering with local food distributions such as The Heart of Maine Resource Center gives us the chance to make a real difference for local families. Each time we volunteer, we see how even small acts of kindness can help bring our community closer together.”
This recognition reflects what credit unions across Maine strive for every day: People Helping People. Maine Highlands FCU’s ongoing partnership with the Heart of Maine Resource Center demonstrates the impact credit unions can make when they engage deeply with their communities.
