December 19, 2019
ASCENSION PARISH, LOUISIANA — Pelican State Credit Union is excited to share that Reyna Pellegrin, a third grade teacher at Ascension Christian Elementary in Gonzales, Louisiana, won $250 for school supplies. Reyna was a participant in the credit union’s Classroom Bulletin Board Contest.
Pelican encouraged teachers to submit a photo of their bulletin board or classroom door for a chance to win cash for school supplies for their classroom! Winners were determined by how many reactions, or votes, each submission received on Pelican’s official Facebook page.
A total of 11 teachers across the state received cash prizes, displaying the credit union’s dedication to education and appreciation for the teachers in the communities it serves.
“This promotion recognizes the gratitude Pelican has for the educators in our communities. Teachers are the building blocks of society and are vital to the development of our next generations. We’re honored to be able to give back to educators across Louisiana,” said Pelican CEO Jeffrey K. Conrad.
Entries are accepted each fall via Pelican’s website at pelicanstatecu.com. For more details about next year’s contest, follow Pelican’s Facebook page at facebook.com/pelicanstatecreditunion.
