BRIGHTON – In September, Lake Trust Credit Union launched a new membership promotion that would award one lucky new member $150,000 – and $50,000 to an existing member who referred a new member who joined between September 1 and December 31, 2016.
This week, the Credit Union celebrated with Robin (no last name provided), of the Lansing area, who won $150,000; and Tiffany (no last name provided), of the Ann Arbor area, who won $50,000, through the promotion.
“We’re constantly inspired by our members, and the good things they’re doing in our communities,” said Lake Trust Credit Union VP of Member Experience, Theresa Dubiel. “When we came across this opportunity, we knew it was an impactful way to give back that could really change a life.”
“I thought they were messing with me when I got the call,” said $150,000 membership promotion winner, Robin. “I called the branch manager because I didn’t think it was real.”
The opportunity to give in this way came about when Lake Trust was awarded promotional money through their partners at Mortgage Center.
“I’ve always said I love my Credit Union, but this… Now I’m in love with my Credit Union,” said $50,000 membership promotion winner, Tiffany.
Additionally, Lake Trust has given a total of $3 million back to their members, through Lake Trust Rewards, since the program’s kick-off in 2014.
