Pioneer Services Spreads Holiday Cheer This Thanksgiving
(CSRwire) KANSAS CITY, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 20, 2006--This
Thanksgiving, Pioneer Services is giving thanks to service members and
their families by giving away more than $11,000 in commissary gift
certificates in the month of November. Dubbed the "Seasoned Greetings"
program, the certificates assist military families with purchasing food
for holiday meals.
"We're always looking for new and unique ways to give back to the
military, especially during the holidays," said Randy McKee, chief
franchise officer for Pioneer Services. "It's incredibly rewarding to see
the looks on their faces -- the smiles, the thanks, and the sense of
relief these families feel are what giving back is all about."
There will be a total of 785 gift certificates handed out in 19
Pioneer Services offices before Thanksgiving, with several hundred more
shared during the month of December. The certificates will be distributed
in different ways in each market, with some locations giving them out in
the office, and others handing them to military chaplains and support
groups that will then distribute as they see fit.
"Each market custom tailors this program for their unique needs," said
McKee. "But no matter how they choose to give the certificates out, the
important thing is to give military families in need a hand up this
holiday season."
The Seasoned Greetings program is another way that Pioneer Services
Representatives improve the quality of life for military families.
Entering its 75th year in the financial services industry, Pioneer
Services provides responsible financial services and education that our
service members deserve. Through a network of offices and on the Internet,
Pioneer Services Representatives offer financial education programs, loans,
and insurance products, and support military families and communities
through a variety of partnerships, programs, and sponsorships.
