Our Purpose

About Bundle:

Bundle, a collaborative community-based project, led by Heart of Maine United Way, is dedicated to connecting and supporting families in the Maine Highlands, focusing on the well-being of young children, expecting parents, and caregivers.

Our Mission:

At Bundle, we share a common goal: to empower children to thrive and to ensure that those who care for them thrive too. We understand the challenges that come with parenthood. Whether you're in need of assistance with a newborn, seeking one-on-one guidance from healthcare professionals, financial support, or tips for accessing nutritious food, Bundle is here to simplify the process.

Our Community-Powered Approach:

Bundle is the result of collaboration between nurses, home visitors, parents, and local partners. We believe that by joining forces, we can reduce the complexities of navigating essential services. Our project combines a user-friendly website with a community-based effort, making it easier for families to access the support they need.

The Bundle Box Program:

As part of our commitment to caregivers, we proudly introduce the Bundle Box Program. This initiative ensures that every family with a new baby receives a free care package. These boxes not only contain essential items but also symbolize our unwavering support for new parents and caregivers. After all, who doesn't appreciate a thoughtful care package?

Our Growth and Future:

While Bundle originated in the Maine Highlands community, in partnership with Helping Hands with Heart, our vision extends far beyond. Heart of Maine United Way has a vision for other communities to implement the Bundle project. We're committed to making a lasting and positive difference in the lives of families and children, and we invite like-minded communities to join us in this mission.

Join us in our mission to build a stronger, more supportive community and a brighter future for our youngest members.
