In the spirit of the holiday season, Colby Co. employees spent last Friday volunteering at several nonprofits throughout the state, in our company’s first Day of Service.
During a year of continued uncertainty and need in our community, we were eager to give back in a small way.
CCE teamed up with several organizations, including Good Shepherd Food Bank, South Portland Food Cupboard, Preble Street, Maine Needs, Animal Welfare Society, and The Opportunity Alliance, for a variety of activities.
Some of our tasks included sorting and packaging food, organizing clothing and other items for families, cleaning and painting, creating and donating kits for families, and signing greeting cards.
It was a wonderful opportunity for departments to spend time together, as well as give back to the community.
CCE ended the night with a holiday gathering at Liquid Riot.
It was a wonderful day of giving, and CCE is looking forward to making this an annual tradition!
