Fort Bragg Federal Credit Union (FBFCU) has donated $10,000 to United Way of Cumberland County, continuing a strong partnership dedicated to supporting and strengthening local resources throughout Cumberland County.

United Way of Cumberland County works to improve lives across the community by strategically raising and investing resources to address critical human service and health needs. Through innovative partnerships with local agencies, the organization remains focused on enhancing the overall quality of life for all citizens.

FBFCU has maintained a longstanding relationship with United Way, actively participating in its annual fundraising campaigns and community initiatives. In 2025, FBFCU raised $9,408 in employee contributions to support United Way’s efforts. In addition, FBFCU collected nearly 400 food drive items, which were donated to the Fort Bragg Armed Services YMCA to help support military families in the community.

Additionally, FBFCU employees volunteered at the Annual Meal Packing Event held on August 14, 2025, at the Crown Complex, further demonstrating the credit union’s ongoing commitment to service and community impact.

Through continued collaboration, FBFCU and United Way of Cumberland County remain dedicated to making a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families across the region.
