This holiday season, Trademark Federal Credit Union came together to make a difference in our communities, supporting both the South Portland Holiday Toy Drive and the Family Violence Project. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our team and Members, we were able to brighten the holidays for many families in need.

Through the South Portland Holiday Toy Drive, we adopted a family, providing them with essential winter clothing and fulfilling some wish-list items. The giving spirit didn’t stop there – our team was so inspired that several went on to adopt families of their own through the program. This year, nearly 390 South Portland children benefited from the toy drive, a remarkable increase from 358 last year and about 300 in 2022. A heartfelt thank you to the dedicated organizers of the toy drive, whose hard work made such a big impact during a challenging time of year. We’re proud to be part of this meaningful effort and extend our gratitude to the Members who also donated toys.

In Augusta, we supported the Family Violence Project, which provides temporary housing and support for individuals experiencing domestic violence or homelessness as a result of it. Along with donated items, we were able to contribute $700 to their cause. Our team’s enthusiasm for shopping and gathering donations was truly inspiring, and we deeply appreciate the Members who joined us in supporting this vital program.

We also held a raffle at our branch for those who donated to the Family Violence Project. Every donation earned an entry for a chance to win some special Trademark swag and chocolates. Congratulations to Barbara, the lucky winner! More importantly, we want to thank her for her generous contribution to such an important cause. Your kindness and support make a lasting impact.

To everyone who contributed their time, effort, and resources: thank you for making this season a little brighter for those in need. Together, we’re building stronger communities and spreading hope. We look forward to continuing these efforts in the years to come.
