BRUNSWICK — Thomas O’Connor was born at 4:02 a.m. Monday, Jan. 1, to Abbey and Matthew O’Connor of Brunswick, becoming the first baby born this year at Mid Coast Hospital.
As with all Maine babies born in 2018, Thomas is eligible for the Harold Alfond College Challenge to receive a $500 grant toward a NextGen College Investing Plan account.
Philanthropist Harold Alfond’s Alfond Scholarship Foundation set up the program to ensure access to higher education for all Maine’s children. The Scholarship Foundation has invested $40 million for 80,000 Maine babies since it began.
Maine resident babies can receive the grant if they are enrolled on or before their first birthday.
