Bar Harbor Bank & Trust Pledges $5000 to 5 Food Pantries in Hancock County

This can be a difficult time for families, what with trying to heat our homes, buy groceries and provide holiday gifts to loved ones. Unfortunately we all know families who are just making ends meet, and some who aren't.

If you are in a position to help food insecurity by making a cash donation to one of the following 5 food pantries, Bar Harbor Bank & Trust will match your donation, up to a total of $1000 for donations made between December 1st and 13th.

The local food pantries which are the beneficiary of this pledge are

• ·Bar Harbor Food Pantry (Bar Harbor)
•  Common Good Soup Kitchen (Southwest Harbor)
•  Emmaus Homeless Shelter (Ellsworth)
•  Loaves & Fishes Food Pantry (Ellsworth)
•  Schoodic Food Pantry (Gouldsboro)

“No one should have to worry about whether they have enough to eat, but that is the reality for too many of our neighbors,” said Jack Frost, VP Director of Community Giving at Bar Harbor Bank & Trust. “We are honored to make this pledge of $5,000 and hope the community will join us in donating to a local food pantry so that, together, we can help those who are experiencing food insecurity.”
