TFCU Has Selected 17 College Students to Receive Travel Vouchers as Part of Their 'Win Your Break' Promotion

Tinker Federal Credit Union (TFCU) has awarded travel vouchers to 17 full-time college students through its Win Your Break promotion. One grand-prize winner received a $2,000 voucher for travel expenses and 16 others received $500 vouchers. This promotion gives a few hard-working students a little extra incentive, as they work toward fulfilling their goals and dreams.
 
TFCU member Aaron Limon was the grand-prize winner of the $2,000 voucher. He saw the promotion online and was selected from more than 4,000 entries.
 
“I’ve never won anything, and this is really big,” said Limon. “I’ve always wanted to travel out of the country, and this will help me make that happen.”
 
A freshman at Benedictine College in Kansas, Limon is working toward degrees in mathematics and secondary education. He has been a member of TFCU since early high school and enjoys playing basketball, video games and reading.
 
The remaining 16 winners were selected from each of TFCU’s Business Partner colleges, universities and technology centers, as well as from an “other” schools category. Winners include a medical student interested in traveling outside the state, an automotive services technology student possibly taking a trip to NASCAR in Texas and a nursing student and mother of five who may be planning a trip to Six Flags with her family. The promotion ran from August 1 through September 15, 2012, and was open to full-time college students ages 18 and over.
 
Partner schools are East Central University, Francis Tuttle Technology Center, Langston University (Oklahoma City Campus), Metro Technology Center, Moore Norman Technology Center, Oklahoma City Community College, Oklahoma Christian University, Oklahoma City University, Oklahoma State University, Oklahoma State University (Oklahoma City Campus), Rose State College, Seminole State College, Southern Nazarene University, St. Gregory’s University, University of Central Oklahoman and Wes Watkins Technology Center.
 
TFCU is the largest credit union in Oklahoma, with over $2.8 billion in assets and over 260,000 members.
