Everyday Heroes Award Debuts for Teachers
HAWTHORNE, Calif., March 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- SkyOne Federal Credit Union is pleased to announce its new Everyday Heroes Award for teachers.
"We are so proud to celebrate our schoolteachers and acknowledge all the hard work they're doing on the front line," said Joseph Whitaker, SkyOne's President and CEO. "We're inviting members of our local community to nominate their own inspirational teacher this year."
The two teachers selected will each receive a $1,000 Visa® gift card from SkyOne to help fund their classroom and assist with distant learning.*
"We're honored to give back to the teachers, our everyday heroes," said Shannon Doiron, SkyOne's Chief Marketing Officer. "This is just a small part of our continued dedication to helping students lay the groundwork they need to excel."
The SkyOne Everyday Heroes Award is open to all current schoolteachers who teach grades K-12, and two nominees will be rewarded for their excellent work during 2020 and 2021. Only one nomination per person is allowed, however both SkyOne members and non-members can participate in spreading children's joy and ability to thrive in these new learning conditions. Nomination period ends April 30, 2021.
This award demonstrates SkyOne's dedication to the importance of youth education and continuing to help both children and adults achieve their financial goals.
"At SkyOne, we offer free online learning tools for kids, and we've partnered with the California State PTA, which helps support local Parent Teacher Association (PTA) units. This partnership also gives our members access to great free financial educational tools for their children," said Doiron.
SkyOne and the California PTA have partnered to provide mutual benefits to their members, including when a CA PTA member joins SkyOne, we reimburse their membership dues for the year.** For more information on SkyOne's membership association with the CA PTA, visit skyone.org/ca-pta.
