At Heart of Maine Resource Center, we know the transformative power of generosity. Each year, on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, millions of people come together to celebrate Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving that kicks off the charitable season. This year, on December 3rd, we’re joining this worldwide movement and inviting you to make an impact right here in Dexter and the surrounding Maine Highlands region.
What is Giving Tuesday?
Giving Tuesday began in 2012 as a simple idea: set aside a day to encourage people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a global movement that inspires individuals, nonprofits, businesses, and communities to come together to make a difference. It’s a time to turn gratitude into action and to support causes that create positive change.
For Heart of Maine Resource Center, Giving Tuesday is an opportunity to connect with compassionate people like you who want to strengthen our community. Together, we can ensure our neighbors have access to essential resources, food, and support services that bring hope and stability.
Why Support Heart of Maine Resource Center?
At HMRC, we work tirelessly to connect neighbors with the resources they need to thrive. Each month, our food distribution program provides more than 160 boxes of food, reaching over 280 individuals. From nutritious meals for families to our home repair initiatives that provide safe and warm living conditions, your support allows us to expand our impact and meet our community's evolving needs.
With every dollar donated this Giving Tuesday, you’re helping us fulfill our mission of building a connected, resilient community. Just $11 provides a box of food for a family of four—a small amount with a big impact.
