In order to better serve our Community, we accept donations. These donations are used for annual scholarships to Portland High Schools, ASTRA students at Lake Region High School, Southern Maine Community College, USM or UNE. Funds are also used to provide monthly meals at Ronald McDonald House in Portland and for purchase of new books for kindergarten students in several communities to keep as "Forever" books,
COVID-19 has forced us to change and adapt to new ways of interacting with our Community. We have modified our Service programs to be safely and physically distanced, in accordance with CDC recommendations.
We cannot visit the many Classrooms, but we arrange for delivery of books.
We have not been able to hold our annual Empty Bowl Supper to benefit Project Feed.
Your donations are important to us now, more than ever before.
Please Donate.
