First Financial Encourages Kids to Read and Earn Rewards in their Annual Summer Reading Contest

First Financial Federal Credit Union (www.firstffcu.com) is encouraging children to let their imaginations soar with a summer reading contest that will allow them to earn rewards and a chance to win big.

From now until August 30, First Financial kids up to age 18 can read books and earn $1 rewards per book read (up to 10 books), and with each book read, they are entered into a drawing to win a $100 Barnes & Noble gift card. All participants will be placed into an additional drawing on August 30 to win the children’s books on display at each First Financial branch (1 child from each branch, 5 total). 

“Summer is a great time to teach children about the magic that reading can bring,” said Issa Stephan, President and CEO of First Financial. “We thought this would be a fun way to encourage them to do so, and open their eyes to a world of imagination and creativity.”
