Maine Family in the Community 

Maine Family FCU is in the heart of Androscoggin County, Maine, where community isn’t just a word—it’s a commitment we live by every day. Giving back isn’t just a duty; it’s a passion that drives us to make a real difference in the lives of those around us.

When it comes to battling hunger, we’re on the front lines, participating in annual fundraisers to support Ending Hunger. In 2023 alone, our efforts poured vital funds into organizations like Trinity Jubilee Center, St. Martin De Porres, Seniors Plus, and New Beginnings. These aren’t just names on a list—they’re pillars of our community, and we’re honored to stand by their side.

But our impact stretches far beyond the realm of education and hunger relief. We’re proud sponsors of The Store Next Door, an initiative dedicated to supporting homeless youth in Lewiston and Auburn, especially during the holidays. And when it comes to healthcare, our Annual Holiday 50/50 isn’t just about spreading cheer—it’s about saving lives. Over three years, we’ve raised over $10,000 for the Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital, bringing hope and healing to countless young patients.

At Maine Family, community isn’t just where we work—it’s where we live, breathe, and thrive. Join us in our mission to make a meaningful impact, one act of kindness at a time. Because when we come together, there’s no limit to what we can achieve.

  • Individuals seeking funds for personal endeavors
  • Political or partisan endorsements

Review and Selection Process

Proposals are reviewed on an ongoing basis. As we review each request, we ask ourselves the following questions:

  • Will these funds help to build a stronger community?
  • How many people are impacted by this funding request?
  • Who in our community benefits from this request?

The amount of funding is determined on a case-by-case basis and is subject to the availability of funds. While we would love to fulfill every request, we are only able to support a portion of them. Selected organizations will be notified of their approval. To provide support to as many organizations as possible, only one request per organization will be considered during a calendar year.

By adhering to these guidelines, Maine Family FCU aims to create a lasting and positive impact on the well-being of the community we serve.

  • My husband and I have been using Maine Family FCU for over 20 years.  We have trusted them with all our banking needs in the course of those years and have been very pleased with the customer service we have received.  Over the past several months, we have reached out to different departments and have been given such amazing customer service.  Their service has been so remarkable that we have now started our family’s next generation with all of their banking needs with Maine Family FCU with our continued trust in them!

She's a great employee!
