LEWISTON — Lewiston Municipal Federal Credit Union, in partnership with the Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger, helped to raise money as part of the 2018 campaign, recently donating $600 to The Store Next Door Project at Lewiston High School.
The project provides food and other basic tangible goods, academic support, emotional support and service referrals for students living within Lewiston in all grades.
Jamie Caouette, Store Next Door Project representative accepting the funds, works closely with the students and other volunteers. She provides ongoing support and expertise to homeless youth and parenting students by helping them find resources to fulfill basic needs. For those with no insurance, Caouette can assist them with getting insurance and other essential supports to help improve their overall wellbeing.
Caouette has been a case-manager for almost 10 years and is passionate in her work helping young people. She often can be found at public speaking engagements sharing her knowledge of homeless youth needs, programs and services and is a volunteer on the Parenting Teen Advisory Board and The Human Trafficking Collaborative; she is a certified Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper.
Lewiston Municipal Federal Credit Union is celebrating its 75th anniversary, serves the employees of Lewiston, Auburn, Lewiston schools, Auburn schools, Lewiston Housing Authority, and their families.
