Investing in Our Communities

At Maine Family Federal Credit Union, community involvement is more than a tradition. It's part of who we are. Since 1938, we've been committed to strengthening the communities we serve through volunteerism, financial education, charitable giving, and partnerships with local organizations. Helping people thrive extends far beyond our branches and into the neighborhoods we call home.

How We Make a Difference

Community Giving

We proudly support local nonprofits, schools, food pantries, and community programs that improve the lives of individuals and families throughout Maine. Through sponsorships, donations, fundraising campaigns, and employee-led initiatives, we're committed to creating positive change where it's needed most.

Volunteer Service

Our employees regularly donate their time and talents to causes that strengthen our communities. From community clean-up projects and food pantry support to United Way's Day of Caring and other volunteer opportunities, we believe in rolling up our sleeves and giving back.

Financial Education

Financial wellness is at the heart of our mission. We provide workshops, webinars, school presentations, online resources, and one-on-one guidance to help individuals and families build confidence and achieve their financial goals.

Scholarships & Youth Programs

We are proud to invest in the next generation through scholarship opportunities, youth savings initiatives, and financial education programs that encourage lifelong financial success.

Recent Community Impact

Throughout the year, Maine Family employees participate in and support initiatives such as:

  • Campaign for Ending Hunger
  • Day of Caring volunteer projects
  • Local food pantry and hunger relief efforts
  • School and youth-focused programs
  • Financial education workshops and community events
  • Nonprofit and community organization sponsorships

Helping Maine Thrive

As a member-owned credit union, our success is measured by more than financial results. It's measured by the impact we make in the communities we serve and the lives we help improve every day.

Together with our members, employees, and community partners, we're building stronger financial futures and stronger communities across Maine.

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 experience with getting a loan was super easy, Danielle made the process smooth and was extremely professional and responsive to correspondence.  I enjoyed the experience so much I sent my girlfriend to Maine Family recently to get an auto loan through Danielle as well. She's a great employee!

  • 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!
