YOUTH FULL MAINE
  • Youth Full Maine has been operating out of Biddeford Middle School and is in need of a permanent space
  • A building has been secured (with refrigeration/freezer) but thousands of dollars are still needed
  • Estimated funding needed is $36,000, they currently have $31,000
  • They are reaching out to credit unions and have also received a sizable donation from Harbor View Lending
  • The subcommittee votes unanimously to contribute $1,000 (payable to Youth Full Maine, sent to Karen's attention)
FAMILY GARDEN PROJECT

  • December: Reach out to property managers to gauge interest and get approval
  • January: Send out applications with February deadline
