Local Tipperary Credit Union announces huge €25,000 prize draw

Clonmel Credit Union has announced its plans for the 25th anniversary of the Members' Draw.

They are launching the '25 for 25' Mega Draw with a additional €25,000 giveaway.

The winner of the anniversary draw will be announced live on Tipp FM's Drive Time with Owen Lonergan on August 22, alongside the regular monthly draw of €21,000 and the announcement of the third-level bursary recipients worth €14,000.

Clonmel Credit Union is set to give away €60,000 at an event during 'Youth Week' at the Clonmel branch on Parnell Street.

All are invited to join in the celebrations.

The Member's' Draw, established 25 years ago by Kathleen Halpin as part of Clonmel Credit Union's community outreach initiative, continues to support members' financial well-being.

In the past year alone, Clonmel Credit Union paid out over €300,000 to 77 lucky members.

Over its lifetime, the Members Draw has awarded millions in cash prizes to its participants, contributing to the prosperity of the local community.

Every month, four members share a total prize pool of €21,000, with draws for €3,000, €2,000, and €1,000 and the grand prize of €15,000.

The 25th-anniversary milestone celebration is part of 'Youth Week' at Clonmel Credit Union, from August 19 to 24, during which the winners of the third-level bursary will be announced.

This bursary will award seven local students planning to do a third-level course this September.

The week will be filled with activities for younger members at the branch to honour Clonmel Credit Union's commitment to the community.

The credit union supports various projects in the area, including sponsorship of local sports clubs and cultural events across Clonmel.

Padraig Enright, CEO of Clonmel Credit Union, commented: "At Clonmel Credit Union, we pride ourselves on being a community bank for all. We offer the same services as a bank, but with a personal touch that is rare these days. When you call us, we answer within five rings. You'll speak to a real person who understands the local economy and can assist you personally.”

“We're here to promote financial well-being and support the economic growth of our Clonmel and its surrounding area through member-focused services and initiatives like the third-level bursary, members' draw and service offerings based on your feedback. We look forward to welcoming everyone into the branch on August 22nd. Good luck to everyone in the mega €25,000 giveaway!” he said.

Clonmel Credit Union invites all members and the wider community to join the celebration.
