AUGUSTA — Maine State Credit Union will host its 11th annual 5K Walk/Run to End Hunger in Kennebec and Somerset counties on May 21.

The entry fee for the run is $20, the first 50 entries will receive a free tech T-shirt. The registration fee for the walk is a donation or two bags of canned goods. The 5K walk/run is along the Kennebec Valley River Rail Trail starting at the Kennebec Valley YMCA in Augusta.

Cayer Security is the main sponsor for this year’s event. Other sponsors include Synergent, OM Financial, Tricorp, Insurance Trust, Elanco, Grey Brothers, Norman, Hanson, & DeTroy and Central Maine Motors.

The annual Ending Hunger Campaign is sponsored by the Maine Credit Union League and for the past several years Maine State Credit Union has been the leading fundraiser for this cause. All the proceeds go directly back into the local community. In 2015, Maine State Credit Union raised more than $70,000 for local food pantries and homeless shelters in central Maine.
