A few members of Casco Federal Credit Union (Casco FCU) got a special delivery at their front door last Tuesday evening. Casco FCU partnered with Gorham House of Pizza (GHOP) to reach out to elderly community members during the pandemic. Eleven local recipients enjoyed a pasta dinner fresh out of the oven, generously prepared and donated by GHOP. They also received a Hannaford Gift Card and a Safety Kit (with face masks, disposable gloves, and hand sanitizer) donated by Casco FCU. 

Patty Kenney, Casco’s Community Relations Manager, organized the event as a part of the credit union’s ongoing Casco Cares Campaign. “We want our members to know we care and are here for them. COVID-19 has changed the way we interact with our community, but we are finding new ways to connect with those who need our support. The Casco Cares Meal Delivery Project was one small way we could do that,” says Kenney. 

Since it began in March, the Casco Cares Campaign has also raised funds for Maine’s Credit Unions Campaign to End Hunger, as well as, directly supported the Gorham and Standish Food Pantries. You can learn more about Casco FCU and their community work on their website at www.cascofcu.com.
