 Through the lens of our cameras, we capture the power of community action. Photographs like these aren't just keepsakes; they serve as vital documentation of positive change. This day exemplifies that spirit perfectly. The United Way of Southern Maine brought together Hannaford employees to create a vibrant mural at The Opportunity Alliance. The finished piece, a beacon of hope for all who enter, embodies the message "Hope starts with you." These photos not only showcase the artistic accomplishment, but also highlight the collaborative spirit that makes these projects possible.
