Lisbon Community Federal Credit Union and its members raised $23,260.70 for the Campaign For Ending Hunger last year. Funds were recently distributed to Lisbon Area Christian Outreach of Lisbon Falls ($17,445.52) and St. Mary’s Food Pantry of Lewiston ($5,815.18). Both organizations support the ongoing mission of feeding those facing food insecurity.
The Campaign For Ending Hunger is a collaborative effort between all of Maine’s credit unions. Participating credit unions raise funds for the campaign at various times throughout the year. LFCU’s biggest fundraisers last year were a fall Cash Calendar and a summer Basket Raffle.
All money raised is distributed to hunger organizations and food pantries throughout Maine; 100% of all the money raised by credit unions stays in Maine and goes directly to the cause of ending hunger.
