DoorDash is providing the Midcoast Youth Center and Skate Park with gift cards to give families experiencing homelessness hot meals and groceries.

This month, the Midcoast Youth Center announced a partnership with DoorDash’s Community Credits program, giving approximately 30 families a total of $3,000 in gift cards to use on the app for deliveries.

DoorDash has similar partnerships with Preble Street in Portland, Freeport Community Services and Wayside Food Programs, according to Daniela Michanie, a DoorDash spokesperson.

“By partnering with DoorDash, we are able to reach even more families across the greater Sagadahoc community and ensure that housing-insecure youth and their loved ones have consistent access to nourishing meals,” said Jamie Dorr, executive director of Midcoast Youth Center.
