Dear Friends of Everybody Eats. Thank you for checking out our blogsite and for your interest in this wonderful program which provides a free, nutritious meal to anyone who comes in the door. As you can imagine, donations and grants are the backbone of this program, along with the hard-working volunteers.
Bangor Savings Bank provides and extroadinary outreach funding program in "Community Matters More" and is in their Campaign for 2011 which provides a total of 68 grants to Maine organizations. The top vote-getting organizations in each region will receive $5,000 and the remaining 60 groups will receive $1,000 each. There are some pre-printed organizations listed as you will see, but write-in organizations have just as much of a chance to win a grant.
