Grow Financial Participates in the Centro Florida Quinceanera Show

Credit Union Searches for Next Project Quince Star!

 TAMPA, FL (June 3, 2013) Grow Financial, one of the leading Credit Unions in the nation is once again proud to participate in the Centro Florida Quinceanera Show.  This year’s show will be on Sunday, June 9 from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. at The Marriot Westshore Hotel.  For more information on this year’s show visit http://www.floridaquinceguide.com/.

This will be the third year that Grow Financial has participated and been a sponsor of this event.  Grow Financial’s Project Quince savings account was first launched two years ago at the Quinceanera show and was created in order to serve as a dedicated savings account that offers a higher interest rate than a basic savings account and includes a minimum monthly amount to ensure that parents will start saving in advance for their daughter’s Quinceanera party. The account is not only offered to parents, but also to grandparents, godmothers, and others to assist with saving for the special occasion. The account offers flexibility so if a girl decides not to have the celebration, the money in the account can be used for anything she wants, like a cruise, or a down payment for a car.

As part of the Quinceanera Show, Grow Financial is hosting a contest titled – Become the Next Project Quince Star! Five semi-finalists will be chosen by August 31, and then one winner will be chosen in September to be Grow Financial’s next Quince Star and appear on all of the marketing materials for the Project Quince account. The lucky winner will have the opportunity to participate in a photo shoot with a makeup artist and stylist, and attend select Grow community events.  Girls interested in entering the contest can visit www.beaquincestar.com for more information and to enter.
