Community Involvement
Serving the Midcoast region since 1956.
Our mission is “Cultivating a thriving community, together.” That word “together,” means we push up our sleeves too! Last year, our Midcoast FCU employees served 2,390 volunteer hours on local committees and school organizations, in food banks, community kitchens, and community gardens, and worked countless local community events.
Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger
The Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger is a 501(c)(3), which means all contributions are Tax-Deductible! 2026 marks the 36th year of the Campaign.
Midcoast FCU supports this campaign and several local organizations’ food assistance programs through donations and employee volunteer efforts. 100% of each dollar raised through this donation link is returned to assist the following organizations in our Midcoast region communities:
- Freeport Community Services
- Mid Coast Hunger Prevention Program
- Bath Area Food Bank
- Help Yourself Shelf Food Pantry
- AIO Food Pantry
