Credit Union dubs two young members “millionaires for
a day”
Riverfront Federal Credit Union named two young members as their
Millionaires for a Day. Eleven year old Miguel of Reading and fifteen year
old Paige also of Reading were the lucky recipients of this red carpet
treatment.
Both were picked up in the morning by a Infinity Limousine and whisked
away to their respective schools. After their day in school, they were
once again picked up in their limousine and taken to Riverfront’s South
4th Street office were they were greeted in the lobby with cheers by staff
and members. Each “millionaire” was presented with a laptop computer,
printer and interest on $1,000,000 for one day.
The young members were picked randomly among the credit union’s members
age 18 and under. “We wanted to draw attention to our Kids Club and YESS
Money Plus accounts that are geared toward teaching children and young
adults how to save and spend money wisely. We are quite pleased with the
results and look forward to doing it again next year” states Brian Posey,
Marketing Manager.
