The Maine Association of Realtors is set to host a statewide personal hygiene product collection drive from Monday through Wednesday, June 5-7.

Nearly 50 real estate companies from York to Lincoln will open their doors as drop-off locations for personal care related product collection. With rising costs, the demand for these essential products has only grown and the need is widespread, according to a news release from Claire Berger with the association.

The association is comprised of 6,200 realtor members and 375 affiliated industry partners representing each of Maine’s 16 counties.

It’s a collaborative effort of seven different local associations: York County Council of the Maine Association of Realtors, Greater Portland Board of Realtors, Maine Commercial Association of Realtors, Mid-Coast Board of Realtors, Kennebec Valley Board of Realtors, Mountains to Shore Board of Realtors and the Greater Bangor Association of Realtors.

After collection, realtor volunteers will caravan the products to more than 25 community nonprofits organizations and schools across Maine to be distributed to families in need.

More information, as well as a list of drop-off locations and the community nonprofits being supported, can be found at mainerealtors.com.
