Neighbors announces winner of 4th annual May We Pay Your Mortgage contest
BATON ROUGE, LA (June 19, 2019) — Neighbors is proud to name Emily Stearns of Port Allen as our fourth annual May We Pay Your Mortgage contest winner. Participants were invited to enter by engaging with Neighbors through social media. The contest had more than 3500 entries this year.
“Winning our mortgage paid for a month will allow us to use what we would be paying for the mortgage and put that money back into the house,” Stearns said. “We'll be able to put it either towards needed home improvements or furnishings.”
The contest was open to anyone within the nine-parish Greater Baton Rouge area with a mortgage loan, not just NFCU members. However, Stearns and her husband have both bee long-time members of Neighbors FCU.
Winner – Emily Stearns
About Neighbors Federal Credit Union
Neighbors Federal Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative operating as an association dedicated to "people helping people." A handful of educators started Baton Rouge Teachers in 1954 with a shoe box, a couple hundred dollars and the goal of making financial services available to school system employees in our area.
Now, Neighbors Federal Credit Union is the largest community-chartered credit union in the state of Louisiana with over 76,000 members and over $1 billion in assets. Since that time, Neighbors has undergone a variety of changes, but the mission has stayed the same: Enhance members' financial well-being and be a partner in the communities Neighbors serves.
