Maine Points: We Are Maine Strong
In Maine Points
In Maine, we support our neighbors. We stand up and lend a hand, even when it’s hard. Because we know that together, we’re strong.
Now is one of those times to rise up and say ‘We are Maine Strong’. Let’s support our local businesses, because they are owned and operated by (or employ) our friends, families, and neighbors. We will encourage those around us, sharing the good and calming the fear. Let’s get creative, be positive, and support local.
#WeAreMaineStrong is a movement created by the Portland Radio Group to support local businesses today so they can keep their doors open tomorrow.
The focus of this program is to let our Mainers know of a FREE online resource available to them.
