Shop Local, Support Many! You can support local businesses and local charities all while doing some holiday shopping – Mark your calendar to shop at participating businesses on Saturday, Dec. 14!

UMC has been funding local organizations in Knox and Waldo counties for 77 years, providing vital funding for service agencies whose work betters our communities and in turn enhances local economies. For the third year in a row, Day of Giving participants (merchants and service providers in Belfast, Camden, Ropckport and Rockland) will donate a percentage of their sales from the December date to UMC.
