DALLAS One lucky member of Neighborhood CU was greeted at his front door before he went to work Thursday morning by top executives from his credit union, who handed him an oversized, $10,000 check representing the credit union’s summer savings prize.
The member’s name was drawn from among of the credit union’s Prize Savings Account holders.
The winner works at the U.S. Postal Service’s mail processing facility in Coppell and has been a Neighborhood CU member for nearly 16 years. He joined the credit union when he first began employment with the Postal Service.
Neighborhood CU members receive one drawing entry for every $25 monthly average balance in their Prize Savings Accounts. The greater the savings, the greater the chance a member has of winning. Each month, drawings are held for prizes including $1,000 cash awards. At the conclusion of each year, a $25,000 Grand Prize winner is drawn.
The credit union said this new, $10,000 award is designed to encourage people to keep saving during the summer and throughout the year.
