Generosity Comes in Baskets at Lisbon Community FCU

Lisbon Community FCU is proud to announce that its 2026 Basket Raffle raised $5,658 in support of Maine Credit Unions’ Campaign for Ending Hunger.

This year’s raffle featured 42 donated baskets, with contributions coming from local businesses, organizations, credit union members, community members, and credit union staff. The wide variety of baskets helped generate excitement throughout the fundraiser and encouraged strong participation from the community.

“Every year, we are reminded just how generous this community is,” said Sarah Perkins, President & CEO of Lisbon Community FCU. “From those who donated baskets to everyone who purchased tickets, this fundraiser was truly a community effort. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who helped us raise $5,658 to support the fight against hunger in our communities.”

Winners of all 42 baskets were recently drawn, and basket pickups are currently underway.

The success of the raffle was made possible by the many individuals and businesses that donated baskets, as well as the members and community supporters who purchased tickets and helped spread the word throughout the campaign.

For Lisbon Community, the fundraiser represents more than a successful raffle—it reflects the credit union philosophy of People Helping People and the impact that can be made when a community comes together around a shared cause.

“We know food insecurity continues to affect individuals and families throughout our area,” Perkins added. “Fundraisers like this give all of us an opportunity to do something meaningful together, one ticket, one donation, and one act of generosity at a time.”

Lisbon Community FCU thanks everyone who donated, participated, volunteered, and supported the 2026 Basket Raffle.
