Maine’s Hospitality Industry has a multi-billion-dollar impact on Maine’s economy each year, but it doesn’t come without its challenges. Hiring shortages, rent increases, unexpected events, and small margins are only some of the hurdles our business owners and workers face.
This is why we’re working to identify the needs and challenges the industry is facing so we can begin to create solutions and opportunities for change, empower those in the industry and make a positive impact in this community. say hello Foundation seeks to improve the lives of Maine’s hospitality workforce and the community through opportunities in education, training, and small business grants.

say hello Foundation has two program areas: education & training and small business grants. Each of these focus areas are connected to each other through the shared goal of creating a more accessible, interconnected, and innovative hospitality industry.
say hello Foundation has also created an annual golf tournament: Birdies for Biff. The event offers an opportunity to come together to support the Foundation and Maine’s hospitality industry. Follow the Foundation on social media for announcements and updates about the golf tournament, education and training resources, and the 2024-2025 inaugural grant cycle. |
