During the first half of the year, the Credit Union raised funds for the American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life. Each member of our 14-person team took and active role in the fight against cancer by walking laps around the Brunswick High School track—for 16 hours! With various fundraisers such as a bake sale, a car wash, employee dress down days and more, the team was able to raise an incredible $6,440—become the second highest fundraising team of the 2011 event!
The second half of the year was dominated by our Ending Hunger campaign. The funds raise during this campaign will be directly donated to the Lisbon Area Christian Outreach (LACO) at our Annual Meeting in March. Fundraisers included Member Appreciation Day raffles of an Adirondack chair and our Moxie Float lighthouse, a LACO bake sale, Lisbon’s Chili & Chowder Challenge and our annual Holiday Basket Raffle. Due to our efforts, over $3,020 will be donated to LACO.
In the end, we are pleased to report that over $9,460 was contributed to our Social Responsibility campaign in 2011. The entire Credit Union would like to extent a special thank you to those Members who contributed to some, or perhaps all, of these fundraisers. Your generosity is very much appreciated. It is a critical goal of the Credit Union to support the various communities that we serve. Here’s to another successful fundraising year in 2012.
Building Futures. Preserving Dreams.
