Rochel "Russ" Livernois Memorial Scholarship Fund

Rochel ‘Russ’ Livernois Memorial Scholarship Fund 2025

In 2000, Lisbon Credit Union developed a Scholarship Fund to help our graduating seniors realize their dreams. Later that year, one of our original founders, Rochel Livernois, passed away. Mr. Livernois served as Treasurer/Manager from the Credit Union's beginning in 1959 through 1985. The scholarship fund was renamed to honor his years of service and dedication.

Each year, the Credit Union awards four scholarships to local high school graduates. In 2025, the amount of the scholarship award increases from $1,000. per student to $2,500. per student. The scholarships are awarded based on academic achievements as well as community involvement. Scholarship dollars are paid directly to the schools after the completion of their first semester.

To be eligible to apply for the scholarship program, a student must:

1. Be a graduating senior

2. Be a Member of our Credit Union or a child of a Member

3. Have a High School GPA of 2.50 or higher

4. Be accepted to a 2 or 4-year accredited post-secondary school

5. Studies must begin within 1 year of the award

2025 Scholarship Applications are now available online, at the Credit Union, or at the guidance office of local high schools by February of each year.

Lisbon Community Federal Credit Union realizes the importance of education and would like to assist four seniors each year in achieving their academic goals. We encourage all qualifying seniors to apply.
