The Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger, which has raised and distributed more than $5.9 million to help end hunger in Maine since 1990, has again partnered with Brenda Davis, one of the state’s leading ending hunger advocates and Director of BBC Opportunity Center, an Old Town-based hunger agency that serves thousands of Maine people, to cover the state of Maine on foot to raise awareness about the problem of hunger in Maine.

On November 9, the Tour made a stop in Lincoln County in Edgecomb. As part of the Tour’s mission of making an impact in each community it visits, the Maine CUs’ Campaign for Ending Hunger presented a check to the Wiscasset Food Bank in Wiscasset. The contribution will enable the Food Bank to purchase more approximately $1,500 worth of food and supplies at Good Shepherd Food Bank and other entities to help feed those who are hungry in Lincoln County.

The 14th Annual Maine Credit Unions’ Ending Hunger Walking Tour is the largest yet with the Walk visiting a record-setting 87 communities during the month-long Tour. Maine’s credit unions will again make a contribution to a food pantry in each community it visits.

To make a tax-deductible contribution to the Campaign, please visit www.mainecul.org, or stop by a local credit union.
