No matter the season, Maine CUs do more for their communities

Between getting kids ready for school, getting back into the swing of things after summer vacations, and trying to enjoy every last minute of warmer weather, September in Maine can be hectic. However, as colder months approach it is important to remember those who have the greater concern of hoping they will be able to feed their families and keep them warm this winner.

Maine credit unions took time away from the September rush for a different type of scramble, one that takes place on the golf course. On September 10, credit union employees from throughout Maine and even beyond the state gathered at Poland Springs Golf Course to raise money and awareness for the Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger at the 15th Annual Norm Nolette Golf Tournament. The tournament raised an impressive total of over $36,000, an amount that will go a long way to helping the many people in need of food in our state. This event is one more way that credit unions help bring the issue of hunger in Maine in the forefront of the minds of those in the community and help to those who need it most.
